Instructions
Make the syrup
Place the honey and orange juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens into a syrup.
Prepare the oven
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F / Gas Mark 4). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
Mix the dough
In a bowl, mix the oatmeal, flour, sugar, and orange zest. Dissolve the baking soda in 1 tbsp of boiling water and add it to the flour mixture. Then add the honey-orange syrup. Mix carefully with a wooden spoon.
Baking
Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the baking sheets, spacing them apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
