Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180c conventional oven
- Grease and line the base and sides of an 8 inch square loose bottomed baking tin with baking parchment. The baking parchment is essential as it makes it easier to lift the flapjacks out of the tin once they have cooled.
- If you don't have an 8 inch square tin, use one of a similar volume in size eg 8 x 8 = 64 square inches. I was never good at maths, so I hope you get the idea.
- Melt the butter, sugar, and syrup in a large pan over a very gentle heat until all the sugar and butter have melted. DO NOT BOIL THE MIXTURE. This is most likely the reason why some flapjacks turn out hard and difficult to eat.
- Add the flour, salt, and oats. Mix thoroughly until everything is covered in the syrup mixture. It helps to give the dry ingredients a little mix before adding to the syrup.
- Spread the mixture evenly and firmly into the prepared tin. The mixture is a little runny, but you will still need to press the mixture down firmly as this will help prevent the flapjacks from falling apart after baking.
- Bake in the centre of the oven for 25 - 30 minutes or until baked and golden brown in colour.
- Remove from the oven. Leave to cool a little before partially slicing the top into bars. DO NOT CUT ALL THE WAY THROUGH. You need the flapjacks to set and cool completely before doing that.
- The mixture will still be hot and very sticky, so take care, especially when baking with children.
- Now that the flapjacks have cooled completely, you can complete to process of slicing them into bars. They will feel soft and chewy. And should not fall apart.
- Keep in an airtight container with a sheet of baking parchment wrapped around them, to help keep them moist and chewy.

GOOEY FLAPJACK RECIPE (THE BEST EVER)
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4, line the baking tin with parchment paper and set aside for later.
- Pour the butter, golden syrup and light brown sugar into a large mixing bowl or pan. Melt on a medium to high heat stirring frequently. If you're using the microwave, heat in short bursts approximately every 10 seconds and stir the mixture each time.
- Add the oats into the mixing bowl and stir until evenly distributed and the oats are coated in the mixture. The flapjack mixture will look quite wet and moist.
- Pour the flapjack mixture into the lined baking tin and spread the mixture into all four corners.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Once baked, leave the flapjacks to cool as this will allow the flapjacks to harden. Wait around 20 minutes before cutting into the flapjack to make squares, rectangles or your desired shape.

- put the mixture in a papered tin, flattening the mixture with the back of a spoon.
- bake the flapjack in the oven at about 180c for around 30 minutes, or until the flapjack has browned.
- note: if you are using raisons in your recipe, you might like to cook the flapjack for a shorter time, or for a longer time at a lower temperature, because raisins can burn and expand with the heat.
- once you take the flapjack out, you should cut it before it cools completely because it will harden.
- if youre impatient, eat some warm (if you havent already!) but flapjack is just as delicious chilled.
- ***** if youre a chocaholic, i would recommend that when the flapjack has cooled completely, you melt a black of chocolate and pour it over, and wait for it to set. *****.
