How to Make All Butter English Flapjacks

  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C / 325°F. Grease and line a square 8x8 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large saucepan, gently melt 170g (6oz) of unsalted butter. Add 170g (6oz) of light brown soft sugar and 100ml (7 tablespoons) of golden syrup (or substitute with honey or a mixture of light and dark corn syrup).
  3. Heat gently, stirring constantly, until the sugar is fully dissolved. Do not let the mixture boil. Remove from heat and stir in 340g (12oz) jumbo oats and 170g (6oz) rolled oats.
  4. Pour the oat mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  6. Let the flapjacks cool slightly in the dish before cutting into squares. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
