HONEY SNAPS RECIPE
Print
Honey Snaps
Ingredients
1/4 cup honey
90g butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup plain flour
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius {335 degrees Fahrenheit}.
2. In a small saucepan over a medium heat, melt the butter, honey and sugar until the sugar has dissolved. This shouldn’t take long at all – it took me about 3 minutes. Add the flour and mix until smooth.
3. Drop tablespoons of mix onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.
4. Cook for 5 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Makes 15 cookies.
These sound great. I’ll be sure to give them a go. Thanks. Jx
Love this! I shall give these a whirl this week, before I pop over to see my bestie for a catch up; perfect with a cuppa! Thanks for sharing x
Would this work with ground almonds?
Thank you, Lmc
I can’t be sure, but there is no rising agent in the recipe – so I can’t understand why it wouldn’t. So you know – the consistency was quite runny (slightly thicker than honey) – so just make sure you’ve got something similar going on with your ingredients.
Let me know how it goes?
Yumbo – I’ll attempt a gluten free version and let you know how they go!
Chantelle, look delicious! I`d like to know how the 3 annies contest came out. Thanks!
That’ll be announced today. 🙂
These look interesting! I might try them!

10 minutes… wow!!! a must try x
Oh, SO yum! I pinned this for future reference. I’m doing a gluten-free trial for now, so I’ll be making these sometime in the coming month!
Oh. Wow. This looks too good to be true! I’m going to have the excuse, I mean opportunity, to try it out this weekend! Could turn out to be dangerous… 😛
I make these for the kids lunch boxes but add low GI museli to is as well. They go down a real treat!
wow these look lovely, gonna whip some up today =D Thanks !
Giving them a try now!
How did you go? Did you beat the clock?
YUM!!!!! Totally going to have to give them a go!! Thanks for sharing!! (or I may not be thanking you later when I cannot stop eating these! haha)..
Feeling down in the dumps, read your blog…. these are in the oven this minute. Looking forward to a sweet hit in 5 mins!
Yay!
made these earlier and they’re a failure…. very odd, seem to need much more flour, they’re wafer thin.
from the picture it looks like they’re supposed to be wafer thin… 🙂
They’re meant to be wafer thin. Was the taste wrong too? Seems odd.
Ooooh these look yummy. Must try!
These look amazing!
They look yummy and sound so easy to make, will have to print the recipe for my husband while he is on a cooking spree 🙂
Tried making them, they were very runny, kept adding more flour and it was still a total failure, runny mess, was really hoping these would be delicious…..
Hmm. That’s odd. I’ll make them again and see if I had one-off success. Did you use normal flour?
Just tried it, they are in the oven now! I hope they come out ok!
I made these today Chantelle and they are very very moorish! Next time I will have to allow a little more room for spreading and stop myself from licking the spoon (ouch! it was very hot!)

Made them for the kindy teachers to celebrate world teachers day… Was a brilliant recipe as it was easy enough for my kindy boy to feel involved. He packaged them up in super cute brown paper bags that he decorated.
oh dear mine do not look like yours. i made them exactly from recipe. perhaps my oven was too hot? they spread all over the tray…
Should they be a little soft and floppy when finished in the oven or crisp? mine have been in for ages – 10 mins – and aren’t crisp
Smell ‘delish though!.. hubby keeps going and opening the oven.
Also, what about if you cooled them over a muffin tin ala brandy snaps and you could make a YUMMY case to hold fruit and or icecream or many taste-y treats!
Oh, good idea!
They’re a little soft after cooking, and then they go crisp. If you like crispy you want them to be nice and really golden. x
Ok – so mine looked NOTHING like yours, but man alive they were good! I even shared them with my Sunday school class who loved them!
I only use grams to measure butter, flour, sugar etc so I could have made dodgy conversions
The first ones I put int he oven didn’t work out.. but then I tried letting the mixture cool down in the saucepan first, then spooned it onto a floured tray (was out of baking paper!) they turned out a better the more solidified the mixture was.
Just made these! They are perfectly delicious! Made your recipe exactly as you stated.
Mine ended up covering nearly the whole baking tray. But oh so tasty! Yum! And easy!
Made these with gluten free flour. I didnt exactly measure anything cause I was too lazy to get out the scales or a measuring cup. also, as I object to using saucepans (cause then Id have to wash them) I stuck the butter sugar n honey in the microwave till it stsrted to bubble, then just added the flour. Taste! amazing! Thankyou!!
Making now!
Wow, a lifesaver recipe, knocked out 30 of these little mummas this afternoon after realising my son needed to take something to cubs tonight for a Jacobs Join. Scrummylicious – thank you Chantelle!
Just made them and they are amazing! Husband loves them!
Tried this recipe as is, and it turned into a runny mess in the oven 🙁 Spread across the entire tray, and ended up having to peel it off like fruit leather. What am I doing wrong?
I’m not sure. Are you using too much honey or butter, maybe?
