Ingredients

  • 150 g unsalted butter
  • 300 g oats
  • Zest lemons (plus more for topping if desired)
  • 100 g soft light brown sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons golden syrup
Icing:
  • 80 g icing sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 180℃ (or 160℃ for fan ovens) and line an 8x8 tin with baking paper.
  2. Melt the butter and set aside to cool for a minute or two.
  3. In a large bowl mix together the oats, lemon zest and brown sugar. Then add in the melted butter and golden syrup. Mix well until the oats are evenly coated.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into your tin and bake for around 20 minutes. The flapjacks should be golden at the edges and wobbly in the middle. They'll firm up as they cool so don't worry.
  5. Let them cool in the tin for around 10 minutes then use a knife to gently score lines where you plan to cut them (this will help to prevent crumbling later). Leave to cool completely.
  6. While the flapjacks are cooling, prepare the icing by mixing the icing sugar and lemon juice together. If you want it thicker, add more icing sugar or if you want it thinner, add more lemon juice or water.
  7. Remove the cooled flapjacks from the tin and drizzle the icing on top. Sprinkle over some extra lemon zest if desired.
  8. Allow the icing to harden then cut the flapjacks into squares. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
