These are soooo easy to make...

75g butter or margarine
50 - 75g light brown sugar
1 tablespoon golden syrup
175g porridge oats

Directions:

1. Put the butter or margarine, sugar and golden syrup into a saucepan and stir over a low heat until the butter and sugar have melted.

2. Add the porridge oats and blend thoroughly.

3. Press into a well greased 18cm square sandwich tin.

4. Bake in the centre of a moderate oven at 180c or 350f or gas mark 4 for 25 minutes or until evenly golden brown.

5. Mark into fingers whilst warm.

6. Allow to become almost cold in the tin before removing.

Enjoy!!!

[face=Comic Sans MS]I think Flapjacks were one of the first things I ever learnt to cook.

The good thing about them is that although they can be quite sweet, when you've made them once you can easily adjust for next time. They are also good as an energy bar.

You can also add dried fruits or chopped apricots to the mix for more nutrients and a different texture.[/face]

Great idea!! Will pop some in next time

Printed both your recipes Countessa, for the walnut &banana cake and the flapjacks.They sound lovely,don't know about the golden syrup though, probably bring some back when I go to the Uk in july.

I had some golden syrup at the back of a cupboard - for me the oats were the problem! Then I found some in Omar's....am happy because now I can make porridge too

I too bought the Quick porridge oats from Omars,Hagag my husband loves porridge.:P

porridge is a firm favourite in our house too (that reminds me, I must look at the recipe sheet that was inside the box!!)
