Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180c conventional oven
- Grease and line the base and sides of an 8 inch square loose bottomed baking tin with baking parchment. The baking parchment is essential as it makes it easier to lift the flapjacks out of the tin once they have cooled.
- If you don't have an 8 inch square tin, use one of a similar volume in size eg 8 x 8 = 64 square inches. I was never good at maths, so I hope you get the idea.
- Melt the butter, sugar, and syrup in a large pan over a very gentle heat until all the sugar and butter have melted. DO NOT BOIL THE MIXTURE. This is most likely the reason why some flapjacks turn out hard and difficult to eat.
- Add the flour, salt, and oats. Mix thoroughly until everything is covered in the syrup mixture. It helps to give the dry ingredients a little mix before adding to the syrup.
- Spread the mixture evenly and firmly into the prepared tin. The mixture is a little runny, but you will still need to press the mixture down firmly as this will help prevent the flapjacks from falling apart after baking.
- Bake in the centre of the oven for 25 - 30 minutes or until baked and golden brown in colour.
- Remove from the oven. Leave to cool a little before partially slicing the top into bars. DO NOT CUT ALL THE WAY THROUGH. You need the flapjacks to set and cool completely before doing that.
- The mixture will still be hot and very sticky, so take care, especially when baking with children.
- Now that the flapjacks have cooled completely, you can complete to process of slicing them into bars. They will feel soft and chewy. And should not fall apart.
- Keep in an airtight container with a sheet of baking parchment wrapped around them, to help keep them moist and chewy.

Steps:
- Preheat griddle so that a drop of water beads when dropped on it.
- Combine dry ingredients.
- Combine wet ingredients and beat well. (Do this quickly as the butter will tend to set up when it hits the cold milk).
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.
- Mix but not too much. Batter will be slightly lumpy.
- Drop a couple tablespoons for each pancake onto hot griddle and cook until bubbles appear in batter and bottom is golden brown.
- Serve with real butter and real maple syrup.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the oats, butter, sugar and golden syrup in a food processor and pulse until mixed - be careful not to overmix or the oats may lose their texture.
- Lightly butter a 20 x 20cm baking tin and add the mixture. Press into the corners with the back of a spoon so the mixture is flat and score into 12 squares. Bake for around 15 mins until golden brown.
