Number Of Ingredients 10

315 g jumbo rolled oats
150 g butter
150 g light brown sugar
3-4 tablespoons golden syrup *see notes
100 g packet milk chocolate chips
100 g packet dark chocolate chips
2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
For the chocolate
150 g dark chocolate (broken into pieces)
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 160Âșc and line a 9x9 inch (22cm) square tin.
  • Weigh the butter, golden syrup and brown sugar into a saucepan. Place over medium heat until everything is melted and whisk well to make sure the butter and melted sugar all well incorporated.
  • Measure the oats into a bowl and add in both packets of chocolate chips. Pour the butter syrup mixture over the oats and mix well. The warm syrup will start to melt some of the chocolate chips as you mix. This is perfect and ensures that once the flapjacks are baked every bite will have buttery oats and chocolate.
  • Once the oats are completely covered in the buttery syrup (they'll all have a "wet" look to them) press into a square lined baking tin. Bake the flapjacks in a square tin lined with baking paper.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes. Remove the flapjacks from the oven and leave them to cool completely in the tin. If they're too warm when you cut them they'll break apart and won't cut into squares.
  • For making the glaze
  • Simply break the bar into pieces and place in a bowl. Add in a tablespoon of butter and melt in the microwave (be careful not to burn the chocolate) for about 2 minutes. Use a spoon to drizzle the flapjacks with the chocolate, or pour the glaze over the flapjacks and smooth evenly over the top to cover completely. Let the chocolate cool completely on the flapjack before you slice into squares. You can pop them into the fridge for a couple of hours or into the freezer for about 15 minutes to let the chocolate topping set.

Yield 16 flapjacks

Number Of Ingredients 9

250g organic rolled oat
100g butter
80g raw brown sugar
5 tbsp golden maple sirup
1 tbsp salt
1 banana, mashed
75g chocolate, melted
3 tbsp milk
1 handful of unsalted nuts, crushed

Steps:

  • 1. Melt the butter in a large non stick saucepan over a very low heat. Add sugar and sirup and mix well. 2. Stir in the oats, add the banana and the pinch of salt. 3. Spread the mixture over a sheet of baking paper in a baking tray and press flat. Place in the oven and cook for 15 min at 220 degrees or until it turns golden brown. Leave it to cool. 4. In the meantime, prepare the melted chocolate in a pan by adding chocolate chunks and milk on low temperature. Dip Half of your flapjacks in chocolate and sprinkle the crushed nuts over it, so that you can still hold it without touching the chocolate (see top picture). Place in the fridge for an hour or to allow for the chocolate to set hard. Store in a air tight box in the fridge for up to a week and bring half of it to your work colleagues. For an even healthier version, you an replace part of the butter with margarine! For more easy step by step recipes, visit www.feelingnibblish.com

CHEWY FLAPJACKS



Chewy Flapjacks image

This is from the Good Food Magazine. It's chewier than regular flapjacks because of the bananas. Use porridge oats rather than jumbo oats, which make the mixture too crumbly. My kids LOVE them - I'm sure yours will too!

  • if youre impatient, eat some warm (if you havent already!) but flapjack is just as delicious chilled.
