Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup demerara sugar (highly recommend for its larger crystals that add crunch to the texture, but can substitute turbinado sugar instead. In a pinch you can use light brown sugar.)
- 1/2 cup golden syrup
- OR Homemade Golden Syrup (click link for recipe - it's EASY and CHEAPER!)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 cups quick cooking rolled oats (NOT instant oats or old-fashioned rolled oats)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 F. *For best results we recommend turning the fan off if you have that option.
- In a saucepan heat the butter, sugar, salt and golden syrup until the butter is melted and the sugar is mostly but not entirely dissolved. (The demerara sugar crystals add a nice crunch to the finished flapjacks.) Place the oats in a large mixing bowl and pour the hot sugar mixture onto the oats. Stir to thoroughly coat the oats. Spread the oat mixture out onto a lined baking sheet according to desired thickness, forming it into a rectangle or square, and pat it down with a spatula or similar. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until lightly browned. The middle should be springy but not extremely soft. Let cool 10 minutes then cut into rectangles (or desired shape) and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.Note: Number of servings depends on what size you cut the flapjacks.
