'Grandma's sticky fruity flapjacks'
All measurements are approximate after the marge or butter!
6 ounces of marge or butter
4 ounces demerera sugar
4 ounces of golden syrup
10 ounces rolled oats
3 ounces coarse oatmeal
2 ounces each of sultanas, raisins, chopped glace cherries and dessicated coconut
Put the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a large saucepan over a low heat and stir occasionally until the butter has melted and all the sugar is disolved.
While this is melting, line a 9 inch square tin with baking parchment and heat the oven to 180 degrees C.
Mix in all the other ingredients then tip into the tin and smooth over the top. Bake towards the top of the oven for about 35 minutes until golden on the top.
Leave to cool in the tin but after about three minutes use a sharp knife to cut through carefully and make either squares or fingers (whichever you prefer). When cold, remove from tin on parchment and cut through original lines again.
These can be stored in an airtight tin for up to a week but I find they have usually disappeared after a couple of days!
Enjoy!
Those look really good grandma! Another recipe for me to try. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMmm I remember those flapjacks you tried to give the men fixing your water supply, they were chewing them for a very long time!!!
ReplyDeleteThat wasn't the flapjacks. You know what workmen are like, anything to avoid doing what they are supposed to be doing!
ReplyDeleteNo I'm sorry but I think you're hugely irresponsible to inflict your flapjacks onto an unsuspecting world. You gave me a couple to take home on the bus and even my dogs had a job to chew them. And these are German Shepherds with one of the biggest bite strengths of any breed!!!!
