Half Baked Diary + Flapjack Goodness

Well it's been a while since I last wrote anything due to illness ( not from my cooking) and recently we have been baking a lot. So from now I’m going to be updating The kitchen more regularly, while I was away you should all have been entertained by reading The Radiation Tube (see link)

So now for a recipe.

Yummy Flapjacks

Pre heat oven to 350 f or gas number 4, 176 c

Saucepan
Shallow pan

¼ lb English or Welsh butter
3 oz Golden Syrup
3 oz Soft brown Sugar
½ lb Rolled Oats

Plus whatever else you want to put in, dried fruit, chocolate chips, lemon peel plus juice.

Put butter, syrup and sugar into a saucepan and stand over a low heat until melted, take off the heat (this is important because if you add the oats while still on the heat the flapjack will harden like concrete). Add the oats and anything else your putting in. Make sure they are coated in the melted butter syrup. Spread the mixture into a shallow tin and bake in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

You can melt down some chocolate and spread over the top of the cooled flapjacks before cutting creating flapjack bars.

Wait till cool and cut into bars and enjoy.
