Make it don't buy it: flapjacks recipe

• 300 g (10.6oz) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• 100 g (3.5oz) golden syrup
• 300 g (10.6oz) brown sugar
• 250 g (8.8oz) porridge oats
• 200 g (7.1oz) jumbo oats

1. Preheat the oven to 180C.
2. Melt the butter over a very low heat on the hob, stirring occasionally, and very lightly grease a shallow 23cm baking tin with butter
3. When the butter is fully melted, add the syrup and brown sugar and stir until thoroughly mixed in, keeping the pan over a very low heat.
4. Next, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the oats a little at a time.
5. It's easier to make sure that all the oats are getting well covered if you don't just dump them all in at once, and this reduces the potential for a messy hob too.
6. Stir all the oats in, making sure that they're all really well covered with the syrup, butter and sugar blend.
7. Tip the mixture out into the greased baking tin, and pack it down hard with the back of a wooden spoon.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then raise the temperature to 200C and bake for another 5-10 minutes.
9. The flapjacks should now be a fair amount darker on top, but not burned, and the mixture will be quite gooey.
10. Remove the tin from the oven, and score lines with a sharp knife to mark out your squares.
11. Leave the tin on a heatproof surface to cool for about 10-15 minutes, then cut your squares properly and place on a wire rack to fully cool.
