Few things are as easy to make – or as delicious to eat – as flapjacks. These classic buttery flapjacks are the original and the best.
Ingredients
- 150g butter, plus extra for greasing
- 50g golden caster sugar
- 4 tbsp golden syrup
- 275g rolled oats
Method
- 1. Preheat the oven to 190°C/fan170°C/gas 5. Grease and line a shallow 20cm-square tin with baking paper.
- 2. Put the butter, sugar and syrup into a small pan over a low heat and stir until the butter has melted. Stir in the oats. Press the mixture into the tin and bake for 20 minutes, or until just golden at the edges.
