    Would flapjacks interest you? They have plain flour and oats. I have a foolproof recipe if you want it? I'll have a look at my biscuit recipe books too for other recipes

    Chocolate Chip Oat Biscuits (from Cookies by Hilaire Walden)

    Makes 60

    115g / 4oz plain flour
    2.5ml / ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
    1.5ml / ¼ tsp baking powder
    pinch of salt
    115g / 4 oz butter or margarine
    115g / 4 oz caster sugar
    90g / 3 ½ oz light brown sugar
    1 egg
    ½ tsp vanilla extract
    75g / 3oz rolled oats
    175g / 6oz chocolate chips

    Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F / Gas 4. Grease 3-4 baking sheets

    Sift the flour, bicarb, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl. Set aside

    With an electric mixer, cream together the butter/marg and the sugars
    Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until light and fluffy

    Add the flour mixture and beat on a low speed until thoroughly blended. Stir in the rolled oats and chocolate chips. The dough should be crumbly.
    Drop heated teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the dough about 2.3 cm / 1 in apart.

    Bake for about 15 minutes until just firm around the edge but still soft to the touch in the centre.
    With a slotted spatula, transfer the biscuits to a wire rack to cool.
