Flapjacks

Ingredients

• 175g Butter (Salted or Unsalted is fine)
• 125g Light Soft Brown Sugar
• 150g Golden Syrup
• 325g Rolled Oats / Porridge Oats
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)

Method

1. Grease and line an 8 inch square baking tin and preheat the oven to 180C (350F) standard / 160C (320F) fan. Add the oats to a large bowl (along with the cinnamon, if using) and set aside.
2. Gently melt the butter, brown sugar, and golden syrup in a saucepan on a low-medium heat until smooth and gently bubbling.
3. Take off the heat and pour on top of the oats. Stir until fully combined and the butter has been absorbed in to the oats.
4. Add the mixture in to the lined baking tin and press down until compact. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges have browned. (The flapjacks will still look soft, this is okay, it'll harden as it cools!)
5. Leave to cool, slice and enjoy!

Notes

• - Store your flapjacks at room temperature, where they will last for 1 week!
• - Mix ins can be added to your taste e.g. 50-75g of nuts, raisins. You could also dip or pour melted choc over the flapjacks.
