ENGLISH FLAPJACK
This is my recipe for Flapjack, inherited from my English mother. It doesn't have golden syrup in it, but you could try using 3 oz of Lyles with 3 oz brown sugar and seeing how it turns out. I'm sure it would work quite well.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan oven
- Grease the bottom of a 20cm square tin then line it with baking parchment
- Put the butter, sugar and golden syrup into a medium pan and then leave so that the butter melts and stirring regularly
- Once the butter is melted, bring the pan off the heat and pour in the oats, making sure to cover each oat in the mixture
- Turn it all into the tin and make sure to spread it out evenly by using a spoon or a knife
- Bake for 25 minutes or until brown around the sides
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool down for 2-3 minutes in the tray then remove from the tray and leave a further 5 minutes
- Cut the flapjack so you have four lines down and three line across, giving you lovely rectangle flapjacks
Tips:
- Ensure Golden Syrup is at Room Temperature: Softer syrup helps in dissolving the sugar and butter properly, creating the ideal consistency for flapjacks.
- Grease the Pan Well: Use butter to grease the pan generously. This prevents sticking, ensuring flapjacks are easily removed.
- Stir Mixture Over Medium Heat: Avoid high heat as it can quickly brown or burn the sugar. Medium heat allows for even cooking and prevents burning.
- Cook Until Bubbles Form: As the mixture cooks, small bubbles will start to appear. Once bubbles reach the surface, the mixture is ready to pour into the pan.
- Don't Overcook: Remove from heat promptly after bubbles form. Overcooking will make flapjacks hard and brittle.
- Prick Bubbles with a Skewer: If bubbles form on the surface after pouring the mixture, prick them with a skewer to release trapped air and prevent sunken areas.
- Cool Completely: Let the flapjacks cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. Cutting warm flapjacks can cause them to crumble.
- Store Properly: Keep flapjacks in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 3 months.
Conclusion:
These all-butter English flapjacks are a classic treat that combines oats, butter, golden syrup, and sugar to create a wonderfully chewy and flavorful snack.
