British flapjacks/granola bars


Makes about 12 - 16

150g salted butter
75g soft light brown sugar
3 heaped tablespoons Lyle's golden syrup
250g rolled oats (the quick ones)
Optional: handful of walnuts and sunflower seeds

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

2. Line a baking tray with baking paper and grease it with some butter.

3. In a saucepan, melt the butter, sugar and golden syrup on a gentle heat.

4. Pour the mixture into a bowl of the oats and mix till well coated.

5. Press firmly into the baking tray (my mixture when pressed was about 1cm thick)

6. Bake for 25 minutes till the edges turn slightly dark.

7. Remove from oven and leave for 10 minutes to cool and then mark out the pieces while it's still warm.

8. Let it cool completely before removing onto a board to cut completely.
