Method

Sift together all the dry ingredients.

Rub in the margarine, until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Add the syrup. Mix it in first with a wooden spoon and then with your hands, to form a smooth ball.

Divide the mixture into small balls (approx. 12) and place on a baking try lined with greaseproof paper. Then press the balls flat with your fingers.

Bake for 10 mins.

Remove from tray immediately and cool on wire rack.
