Ingredients
- 250 g porridge oats
- 80 g dark brown sugar
- 100 g smooth peanut butter
- 50 g golden syrup
- 50 g salted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit, 160 fan oven).
- In a pan set over a low to medium heat, add the butter cut into cubes, sugar and golden syrup, and use a silicone spatula to stir gently until the mixture is melted.
- Add the peanut butter and mix again to get a smooth texture.
- In a mixing bowl, add the oats and peanut butter mixture, and mix well to combine.
- Line a square baking tin (mine is 20 cm in diameter) with non-stick paper, and spread the mixture, pressing down well for an even bake.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, then remove from the oven, and use a sharp knife to cut into squares.
- Leave it to cool down completely in the tin before serving.
Notes
- The ratio butter to sugar and golden syrup is crucial in order to achieve a nice chewy texture that does not come apart - too little butter, and they will be too crumbly, not enough sugar, and they will be too tough.
- Do make sure to slice the flapjacks as soon as they come out of the oven, otherwise it is impossible to do it once they cool down completely and harden.
- The squares can be stored into an airtight container, and they can stay fresh for many days - best served with a nice cuppa!
