50g butter
60g brown sugar
1 1/2 tbsp honey (or golden syrup)
2oog porridge oats
2 small bananas, peeled
small handful of milk chocolate chips (optional)
In a pan, melt butter, add sugar and golden syrup and stir well - or simply melt together in a bowl in the microwave.
Mash the bananas with a fork (if you have a little helper they'll enjoy this) and mix into butter mixture with the oats. Spread into a greased and lined baking tray, roughly 15cmx20cm in size. Flatten with the back of a spoon, and bake at 200C/Gas 6 for 15-20 mins until slightly brown.
Leave to cool, then cut into squares - I cut mine into 12.
THX for this! I will definitely go for this as soon as i come back from x-mas holiday :) Or actually; why wouldn´t i bake this for my family here in Finland! oh yes. i will go for it! One thing i admire about Britain, is the flapjack culture. I can not get enough of them <3
ReplyDeleteHow long would these keep for bearing in mind the added banana?
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth, I keep them in an airtight container and find they last up to 3 days. The sugar acts as a sort of preserver so they stay fresh, even with the banana. Hope that helps! x
ReplyDeleteCan you replace the sugar for more honey??
