Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Light brown sugar
- 75 grams Golden syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 250 grams Rolled oats
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a square 20cm (8-inch) baking tin with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, light brown sugar, and golden syrup over low heat. Stir continuously until smooth and fully combined, but do not allow the mixture to boil.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
Stir the rolled oats into the butter mixture until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the oat mixture into the prepared baking tin. Use the back of a spoon to press the mixture down evenly and firmly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The center will still be slightly soft but will firm up as it cools.
Remove from the oven and allow the flapjack to cool completely in the tin (about 1 hour).
Once cooled, carefully lift the flapjack out of the tin using the parchment paper and place it on a cutting board.
Cut into 8 even squares or rectangles, and serve as a snack or dessert. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
