Ingredients

• 225g (1 1/2 cups) Just Right Cereal or any kind of Muesli based Cereal
• 150g (1 cup) plain flour
• 85g (1 cup) desiccated coconut
• 75g (1/2 cup) Cranberries or Craisins
• 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
• 55g (1/4 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger or allspice
• 125g butter, chopped
• 60ml (1/4 cup) golden syrup
• 1 tbs water
• 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

Method

1. Preheat oven to 160°C. Line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
   
2. Combine the Cereal, flour, coconut, cranberries, caster and brown sugar, and spice in a large bowl.
   
3. Combine the butter, golden syrup and water in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring, until butter melts and mixture is well combined. Remove from heat. Add bicarbonate of soda and stir until just combined. Add to dry mixture and stir until combined.
   
4. Use your hands to roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls and place on prepared trays, allowing room for spreading. Use your fingers to flatten slightly. Bake in preheated oven, swapping trays halfway through cooking, for 20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Remove from oven and set aside for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
