Flapjack

September 11, 2017 By Amy 92 Comments

Flapjack Recipe - Baking with Granny. The perfect chewy flapjack, made with Scottish oats and golden syrup.

Us Scots love some oats. Of course there’s porridge, everyone’s favourite winter warmer to set you up on a dreich day. And oatcakes which our youngest has recently found a fondness for; dry, with no butter, cheese or chutney – we’ll introduce him to that luxury in time. But when it comes to a sweet oat treat, there’s nothing that can top Flapjack.

The perfect Flapjack is something that can spark great debate. Crunchy or chewy? That is the question. And my answer? It’s got to be chewy. When I want a sweet filling treat, I want one that isn’t going to break my teeth and take the enjoyment of it’s entirety away from me.

For a real, proper Flapjack, golden syrup is a must. There’s no denying it. You could try your hands at a honey or maple syrup substitute but it just now the same. If our Golden Syrup Cake wasn’t enough for you to invest in a tin of the liquid gold, Flapjack should be!

The ingredients & recipe for the perfect chewy flapjack is of course of importance but the real secret is actually within the baking. Lucky for us though, Granny has already done all the hard work and come up with a fool-proof flapjack recipe which never fails to please (and induce a much needed sugar-high energy boost).

OMG! I’ve tried lots of different recipes inc Jamie and BBC (my go to recipe sites) and I have to say this is by far the best, thank you!


Ingredients:

Butter
When you think of flapjack, you think of a sweet, buttery flavour; that of course comes from a generous amount of butter. Salted or unsalted butter is fine; just whichever you have to hand.

Golden Syrup
There really is no compromise when it comes to golden syrup in flapjack. This sweet nectar can’t be replaced as there’s really nothing else quite like it.

Soft Light Brown Sugar
As if the golden syrup wasn’t sweetness enough, a (un)healthy dose of sugar for good measure too! Soft light brown sugar is preferable as it compliments the golden sugar but caster sugar can be used if it is all you have.

Porridge Oats
What makes a flapjack a flapjack! I usually just dip into my big bag of porridge oats but it’s worth experimenting with different oats to find your favourite texture.

Cinnamon
Technically an optional ingredient but one I wouldn’t personally skip. It adds just a little extra depth to this super simple recipe.

Granny’s Top Tips

• For the perfectly chewy flapjack, you bake it for less time than you’d think. It will come out the oven not looking ready but it will continue to firm up as it cools, leaving a lovely chewy finish. If you prefer a crunchy flapjack, simply bake for a little longer.
• We have experimented a lot with what is best to line your baking tray with and found foil which is generously greased to be the best but if it doesn’t work for you, try experimenting with greaseproof paper or silicone baking tins.

Author: Baking with Granny

Ingredients 

  • 300 g Butter
  • 180 g Golden Syrup
  • 200 g Light Soft Brown Sugar
  • 400 g Porridge Oats
  • ¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 180°c (160°c for a fan-assisted oven or Gas Mark 4) and line a 11×7 inches tray bake tin with tin foil and grease generously with butter. Set aside.
  • In a large pan, warm the butter, golden syrup and sugar – stirring regularly – until melted together. This can be done in the microwave, just use a microwave-proof dish and remove to stir frequently.
  • In a large bowl, lightly mix the oats and cinnamon before adding the melted mixture and stirring until all the oats are covered.
  • Transfer the mixture to your pre-lined/greased tray and smooth the mixture into the corners.
  • Bake in your pre-heated oven for about 20 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and the middle still has a "slight wobble". The edges will have risen a little, so press back down with a cold spoon if desired.
  • Leave to cool a little in the tray before removing, carefully peeling off the tin foil and cutting into your desired sized slices.

Gluten-free: Most oats are naturally gluten-free but it’s always worth double checking or opting for ones from a free-from range to be sure.

Vegan: Use a dairy-free margarine instead of butter.

          Can’t comment on the recipe as it’s still in the oven! But for mixtures like this with loads of syrup etc I always use baking parchment rather than foil – it just does not stick. Don’t confuse with greaseproof paper which doesn’t work.

      i am currently trying to follow mary berry way from her cookbook guide. the first batch turned out well actually, except from they stuck but i didn’t have any baking paper so i just buttered the tin they were in, it wasn’t;t that bad, got 4 out of 9 and the others were still edible just crumbly and broken up. i am baking for a charity so i want them to be nicely presented. doing my second batch today with baking paper as i got some last night! fingers crossed. they are in the oven at the moment…

    This recipe is delicious! It is perhaps sacrilegious to say that my family are not huge flapjack fans — too hard, too soft, too sweet… However, with the huge number of bake sales that I seem to be saddled with lately I decided I needed an easy(ish) popular (with most) bake to take along, so needed to add flapjacks to my repertoire. My husband & daughter were jostling each other out of the way to get to the pan to get the last bits out.

    I did not use foil — used parchment paper, and it worked perfect, no butter needed. I did not have light brown sugar on hand, so used a combination of dark brown & golden caster, both of which I did have on hand, about 50/50. I also doubled the recipe (not a problem with this recipe) and spread 1/2 of mixture out in pan, sprinkled over some (not a lot) chocolate chips, then spread the remainder of the mixture over that. Once it was all cooked and cooled a bit I melted some chocolate and drizzled over the top (not a lot). Was trying to achieve the same effect of the fancy flapjacks that I have bought now & then at M&S. These are better.

    So, thanks for the delicious recipe, and I’m glad that I was very particular about which recipe I eventually decided to try. I looked at ingredients and reviews, and landed on yours — so glad that I did, as this recipe is a keeper.

      Hi Barbara.
      If you reduce your baking time a little you will get a chewier Flapjack. Don’t be afraid to take it out when it doesn’t look quite done and is a little wobbly in the middle – it will continue to set whilst it cools.

    We love them!

    We don’t use foil and to be honest we keep pouring the oats in until we think the consistency is right. 9 times out of 10 they’re perfect, 1 time out of 10 I have to scoff them all myself

    Good basic recipe for flapjacks. I added chopped dried apricots, sultanas and grated orange zest to the mix.
    Used baking parchment to line tin but didn’t grease this, just added the mixture and popped into the oven.
    Ovens do have differences in temperature my new gas oven needs to be turned up a little compared to my old appliance,
    this could be why some reviews are reporting underbaked.

    I think I would use less butter next time, the top of the flapjack is good but the bottom still has liquid butter in it! Also, do not use a spring form tin, it’s the only thing I had but the butter leaked out of the bottom.

    Overall, great recipe but I will tweak it next time.

    I have used various flapjack recipes previously. Made these yesterday, using hard stork margarine, as my son is dairy intolerant. The family stated they were the best flapjacks I have made by along way (several slices have disappeared over night). I used a silicon tin an there was no issues with sticking. Will definitely make again.

    As with all recipes, you have to play around with measurements to find what works for you.

    I’d reduce the butter to 200/250g and i never use anything to line my tin. Other than a bit of butter if its an old baking tray.

    Americans:
    If you want to convert this recipe use:
    1/3 cup butter
    1/2 cup syrup
    4 cups oats – I used 2 cup quick oats and 2 cups old fashioned oats for a nice combo
    Do not use all old fashioned oats however—too coarse.

    Use parchment paper and under bake (maybe 18 mins total)

      I have tried them today and keep increasing the baking time as they still look like slop. Such a shame as there are loads of positive reviews, I’m wondering if I’ve done something wrong.

    I made these and added frozen cherries and used oil instead of butter(needed dairy free).I also used foil to line my tray which i do when baking and run out of parchment.(I had no trouble with them sticking,)My sister in law and son who i purposely bake non dairy absolutely love them.They were crunchy on the outer edges and softer and chewy on the inside.

    This is a very easy recipe and the best flapjacks I have ever made. I make them at least every other week and they are always a favourite. Very useful as they are gluten free when you use the oats packed in a separate environment and I put lots of different ingredients eg chopped dates or nuts and seeds just to vary them a little. Never had a failure yet. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

    Some recipes for flapjacks can be a bit hit and miss, just made these for the second time and added chopped apricots, sultanas and some chocolate chips, come out really well from the tin when lined with baking parchment. My husband sometimes likes to add one to a bowl and pours hot milk over making a quick filling breakfast.

    Have you tried golden syrup and black treacle 50/50 it gives it a richer taste I think.

    Followed the recipe, though used a reusable baking sheet rather than the foil in the recipe after reading the comments but my flapjack didn’t stick together, left it to cool completely but on cutting it just crumbled. Tasted nice but very disappointing as it looks a mess and hard to eat.

    So glad I found this. Didn’t quite have enough butter so lessened the ingredients to match but they were fab. Even had my fussy kids scoffing them down!

    They make superb granola or muesli if they don’t don’t stick together and just delicious with Greek yoghurt and fruit mmm.

    Turned out perfect, bit put off by some of the comments but thought I’d try it anyhow. I did use 25g. less butter and lined my tin with greaseproof paper. When cooked I left it in the tin to go completely cold before cutting into squares. Will definitely be making this again. Thank you.
