The world should have more flapkacks: that oaty, healthy, sweet bar that your granny used to make. I'm looking for recipes for a variety of them. I have one or two but it would be great to get a few more. So if you have any, please post them here or email them and we can have a flapjack sunday.
Here's one of mine though I can't remember where I got it from:
- 55g (2oz) porridge oats
- 15g (½oz) butter, finely cubed
- 55g (2oz) toasted flaked almonds
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F, gas mark 4).
- Put the apple into a pot with 6tbsp of water, cover and cook until soft. Drain the water and mash with a potato masher.
- Tip 200g (7oz) of the oats and the cinnamon into a large bowl and add the mashed apples and two-thirds of the caramel. Mix well.
- For the base: spread two-thirds of the oat mixture onto the base of the tin and push into the corners with the back of a spoon for a completely smooth layer.
- Place berries on top of the base. Beat the caramel in the can then drizzle over the berries.
- Make a crumbly topping: add 55g (2oz) oats to the remaining mixture in the bowl and mix well. Add the almonds and stir together.
- Dot the final oat mixture over the berries and press down slightly to stick all the layers together. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden brown. Leave to cool.
