These are sweet little beauties, which hit the spot if you are looking for a good snack. Similar to Crunchies, but without the coconut they are not as crunchy, more chewy and soft. They are great for picnics, afternoon tea and breakfasts on the run. You can use 150g of demerara sugar or granulated sugar, or half of each. The demerara sugar gives a firmer texture.
Ingredients:
150g butter
75g golden granulated sugar
75g demerara sugar
50ml golden syrup or honey
300g oats
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180C.
Place the butter, sugar and syrup or honey in a large pan and place over a gentle heat until the butter has melted. Mix well together and then stir in the oats.
Butter a 30cm x 20 cm dish and then pour in the mixture. Press down well with the back of a metal spoon.
Place in the centre of the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown all over. Whilst the mixture is still warm run a knife around the edge of the dish and cut the flapjack into squares. Leave to cool completely in the tin before removing.
Makes about 15 squares. Store in an airtight container.
