BRITISH FLAPJACKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8 x 8 x 2-inch metal baking pan. Combine first 3 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan.

Transfer mixture to prepared pan and spread out in even layer.
• Bake until top is golden (edges will be darker), about 25 minutes. Cool in pan on rack 5 minutes. Cut into 4 squares; cut each into 4 triangles (mixture will still be soft). Cool completely in pan before serving.

TRADITIONAL BRITISH FLAPJACKS

Steps:

• Melt the butter and the margarine in a deep saucepan over a very low heat.
• Add the brown sugar and honey and mix well until you have a liquid substance.
• Mix in the oats and pinch of salt -- it may be easier to add the oats in gradually stirring and covering the oats with the mixture.
• Mash the banana into a liquid pulp and mix into the oats (this will take a good few minutes to ensure that the banana is fully mixed in).
• Get a knife and spread the oats evenly over a greased baking sheet.
• Place the baking sheet onto the middle shelf in a 425F preheated oven (gas mark 5, 220 C) and bake for 15 minutes, checking the progress regularly. Take out when the mixture starts turning a darker color - don't over bake.
• Let stand for a minute or two, then cut the flapjack into as many pieces as you wish. You may find it best to leave the flapjacks for a few hours to cool down although you can eat them straight away.
• Drizzle with melted chocolate if you'd like as a way to decorate but this is really not needed unless you want to dress up the flapjacks.

BRITISH FLAPJACKS RECIPE - (4.9/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8x8x2-inch metal baking pan**. **NOTE: I made a parchment paper "sling" so that the flapjacks would be guarantee to life right out of the pan. You can also use a foil sling, as well. Combine first 3 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan. Stir constantly over medium-low heat until butter melts, sugar dissolves, and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat. Add oats and salt; stir until coated. Transfer mixture to prepared pan and spread out in even layer. Bake until top is golden (edges will be darker), about 25 minutes. Cool in pan on rack 5 minutes. Cut into 4 squares*; cut each into 4 triangles (mixture will still be soft). *I used a bench scraper tool to easily cut the bars. Be sure they are still warm when you cut them. Cool completely*** in pan before serving. ***We ate them slightly warm and loved them this way.
