Preheat the oven
to 190.C/375'F/Gas 5. Grease two baking sheets. Mix
the oats and brown sugar in a bowl, breaking up any
lumps in the sugar.
Add the egg,
oil and malt extract, mix well, then leave to
soak for 15 minutes.
Using a teaspoon,
place small heaps of the mixture on the prepared
baking sheets, leaving room for spreading. Press
into 7.5cm/3in rounds with a dampened fork.
Bake the biscuits
for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool
for 1 minute, then remove with a palette knife and
cool on a wire rack.
