Ingredients
- 2 Bramley Apples (peeled and chopped into small pieces.)
- 2 tbsp Caster Sugar
- 1 tsp Water
- 200 g Butter (unsalted)
- 5 tbsp Golden Syrup
- 50 g Light Brown Sugar
- 75 g Demerara Sugar
- 400 g Oats
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180ยฐc (160 fan/ Gas 4/ 350F) and line a 20cm square baking tin with baking paper.
- Place the chopped Bramley apples into a saucepan with 2 tablespoons of caster sugar and 1 teaspoon of water. Cook on a low heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring often, until the apple starts to soften. Set aside.
- In another saucepan, melt the butter, sugars and syrup on a low heat for a few minutes.
- Stir in the oats and cinnamon.
- Press half the mixture into a lined baking tin and press down firmly with the back of a spoon.
- Spread over the apples, pressing them down lightly with your hand or a spoon.
- Top the apples with the other half of the flapjack mixture, firmly press it down with the back of spoon.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden but the centre is still slightly soft. Don't wait for the whole flapjack to become firm in the oven as it will continue to set as it cools.
- Score into 16 squares while still warm, then leave to cool completely in the tin before cutting through and removing the flapjacks.
