Easy Oatmeal Cookies

This is a tried and tested recipe that never fails to rise upto the occasion. Great to pack in lunch boxes and a quick fix for when you have the munchies!




INGREDIENTS:
11/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup self raising flour
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
1 egg
2 tablespoons dessicated coconut
2 tablespoons almonds, chopped


METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius in a fan forced oven.
In a large bowl mix melted butter, sugar and egg until smooth. Add all the dry ingredients and combine to form a crumbly dough. 
Drop spoonful of the cookie dough onto a prepared cookie tray. Press down with a fork on each of the dough balls to flatten the cookies.  
Bake for 8-10 minutes or when cookies are slightly brown. They are very soft to touch at this stage so any attempts to take them off the tray will result in crumbled cookies. Allow them to cool completely and then use a flat spatula to ease them off the tray. Store in an airtight jar.
