Ingredients:
Oats: To achieve the perfect flapjack texture, it's important to use rolled oats, also known as old-fashioned oats. These larger, flatter oats will give your flapjacks a chewier and heartier consistency.
Butter: Unsalted butter is recommended for this recipe, as it allows you to control the amount of salt in the final product.
Golden syrup: This classic British ingredient is the key to creating the signature sticky and sweet glaze on top of the flapjacks.
Brown sugar: The combination of brown sugar and golden syrup gives the flapjacks their irresistible sweetness.
Mixed dried fruit: To give these flapjacks a festive twist, we'll be adding in some dried cranberries, raisins, and chopped apricots. Feel free to use your favorite dried fruits or mix and match according to your preference.
Seasonings: For the perfect holiday flavor, we'll be adding in some cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to the flapjack mixture.
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven and prepare your pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
Step 2: Melt the butter and syrup
In a small saucepan, melt together 1 stick of unsalted butter and 1/2 cup of golden syrup over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Add in the sugar and seasonings
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon of ginger. Mix until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Step 4: Combine the wet and dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of rolled oats and 1/4 cup of mixed dried fruit. Pour the melted butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix until the oats are fully coated.
Step 5: Press the mixture into the pan
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan and use a spatula or your hands to firmly press it down into an even layer.
Step 6: Bake and cool
Bake the flapjacks for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Allow them to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
Step 7: Serve and enjoy!
Once cooled, cut the flapjacks into squares and serve them as a delicious holiday treat. These flapjacks also make for a great edible gift or addition to a holiday dessert platter.
Pro tip: For an extra festive touch, drizzle melted white chocolate on top of the cooled flapjacks and sprinkle with some crushed candy canes.
