Get read for some tasty flapjacks.

Ingredients:

  250g of Oats
  125g of Butter
  125g of Brown Sugar
  3 tablespoons of Golden Syrup
I read that Golden Syrup isn't that widespread of a product in the states? That sucks because it's delicious. You'll also see from the pictures that I added some raisins to my recipe. That's because I had some that needed using up. They are not essential to the recipe and I don't usually use them. If this disqualifies me, then so be it.

1) This is really simple. First, chuck everything in a food processor. If, like me, you don't have such luxuries, you're going to have to use some elbow grease. If you do it using the processor, make sure not to decimate the oats, you want to leave some texture. Pulse it.

2) Mix it up. That's right, I used a saucepan. I had nothing better.

3) Spread evenly in a cake tin or whatever you fancy using.

4) Cook for around 20 minutes at 180°C until golden brown. It will be soft when it comes out the oven, so you might want to use this opportunity to score some lines for where you aim to cut it once it's cooled. Alternatively, do this before putting it in the oven.

5) Once cooled, serve and gobble. Gobble like you've never gobbled before. It actually makes a few more pieces that this, but I gobbled them whilst it was still warm and gooey.
