Honey flapjacks

Ingredients

  • 75g unsalted butter or polyunsaturated spread
  • 125g runny honey
  • 25g demerara sugar
  • 250g rolled (porridge) oats

    Makes 8-9, takes 25-30 minutes

    1. Butter or grease a 20cm (8in) square loose-bottomed baking tin. Preheat the oven to 180˚C/fan 160˚C/gas 4.
    2. Put the butter, honey and demerara sugar in a small pan and stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat.
    3. Measure the oats into a large mixing bowl. Pour on the honey mixture and mix together well.
    4. Press the oat mixture into the prepared baking tin, levelling the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
    5. Remove from the oven and cut through the flapjack while it is still warm to mark out between 8 and 12 fingers or squares. Leave in the tin on a cooling rack until completely cold, then transfer to an airtight tin or container to store.

    1. these are fantastic, i made these and they are the perfect balance between sweet indulgence, and lightness. Easily modified with dark chocolate drizzle, and raisans. yum!

    2. Awesome, and not too unhealthy. I generally add mixed seeds/nuts in place of 100g of the rolled oats and maybe a teaspoon of cinnamon. The honey makes it sweet enough to not warrant the sugar, so I wouldn’t worry if you miss it out.
