Hi,
Thank you for sharing the wonderful looking recipe. Would you be able to tell the the function of the 2tbsp golden syrup? What happened if it’s not added? Also the function of tapping the baking tray 1:2 way through and again after baking? Remove air pockets?
Many thanks,
Trang

Golden syrup is part of the binding agent, so helps to holds it together.
Yes, the tapping is to remove air pockets.
