Carole’s Cookery – Flapjacks

I found a recipe on the BBC website for flapjacks. Here’s how I made them:

Ingredients

  • oil, for greasing
  • 100g butter, cubed
  • 100g golden syrup
  • 50g mixed seeds, such as pumpkin, sunflower, linseed and sesame
  • 150 g dried fruit  (I used raisins and apricots)
  • 250g jumbo porridge oats
  • 1 large egg, beaten

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C.
  2. Mix all the dry ingredients together, then add the egg and mix together.
  3. Add melted  butter and golden syrup.  
  4. Pop in a greased tin, press mixture down firmly and bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until golden and lightly browned around the edges.
