Notes
- Try not to over heat the butter, otherwise it will split like it has in our photo. However it won't make much of a difference to the final taste and texture.
- Add a pinch of salt to intensify the flavour. However we left this out as we were making it for kids to eat.
- Make these gluten free by by using gluten free oats
- Leave them to cool completely before cutting. This allows them to firm up and keep their shape.
