Lacy Oatmeal Brittle (Florentine Cookies)
Ingredients
- 1 cup (250 mL) Robin Hood® Oats, Quick or Minute
- 2/3 cup (150 mL) brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) corn syrup, any type
- 1/3 cup (75 mL) butter
- 3/4 cup (175 mL) Robin Hood® Original All Purpose Flour
Directions
Step 1:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Place oats on a baking sheet and bake in preheated oven, 8 - 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Stir during baking to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Cool.
Step 2:
Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 3:
Combine brown sugar, corn syrup and butter in a medium saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium high heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for 1 minute, remove from heat and stir in toasted oats and flour until combined.
Step 4:
Drop batter from rounded teaspoons (5 mL) on prepared baking sheets, 6 cookies per sheet, well- spaced apart as the cookies will spread.
Step 5:
Bake in preheated oven 8 to 10 minutes until golden. Let cookies sit for 1 minute before removing to a cooling rack. Shape cookies into desired shapes while still warm.
