My usual packed lunch flapjacks are low in fat and sugar and have loads of fresh fruit added, but spotted this recipe yesterday and thought I'd make something a little different for the holidays (I'm also taking advantage of being able to add nuts, but these are optional). I hate shop bought pre packed flapjacks that are soft and doughy, almost like uncooked mix. To me, they should be crispy and taste like the ones I grew up with.

| These have 30g of Nutribrex too as I didn't quite have enough oats left! |
I sort of followed this recipe, but made a smaller quantity and reduced the sugar a little, oh, and cooked them for longer, because 20 minutes was never going to be enough!
150g Dairy and Soya Free margarine
80g Soft Brown Sugar
90g Golden Syrup
300g Oats
nuts/seeds/dried fruit/chocolate chips
Melt margarine, sugar and syrup together in a bowl in the microwave.
Stir in oats and fruit, seeds etc.
Tip into a lined tin (mine is 25cm x 18cm)
Press down with the back of a spoon.
Bake at 180ºc for 30-35 mins.
Cut into 16 fingers while still warm and leave to cool in the tin.
