    Measures don't need to be exact... a little bit more syrup makes them nice and moist. (i've added raisins to this mixture too... equally as nice)

    100g (4oz old school) Butter
    75g (3oz) Golden syrup
    75g (3oz) brown sugar (demerera is good for crunchy texture, soft is good for gooey)
    200g (8oz) Oats

    Melt butter, sugar and syrup in pan
    mix into oats (i find this is a good time to test the mixture to ensure that it is indeed flapjack mixture)
    put in greased tin (about 3/4 of an inch, 2.5 cm makes good crunch / squidge texture - perfect flapjack)
    cook on 180 degrees (number 4 gas) until nice and golden
    allow to cool
    cut
    eat
    eat more
    eat more

    If the flapjack comes out to hard, put it in a biscuit in overnight with a piece of bread, softens it up nicely!

    That does make some mighty fine flapjack. Of course it's nearly all gone already, next time i'll have to make twice as much.

    I used dark brown sugar, next time I might try demerera sugar and see what the difference is in taste.

    Thanks for the recipe.

    Not a lot of difference in taste, you get a crunchier texture... I find I always have to do double as it doesn't last long in my household!

    Recipe courtesy of the 1977 Dairy Diary cookbook... or "The bible" in our house.

    Im just revving upto making some flapjacks.

    Moved into our house a fortnight ago, and after two weeks of spag boll and sausuage and mash, and buying 95p flapjacks from the canteen
    - Im looking to up the anti a little bit!

    The only thing is every time i make them at home they end up hard, and a prefer them soft!
    - Seams i should basicaly just cook them less?
