Ingredients
- 300 g Porridge Oats
- 115 g Soft Light Brown Sugar
- 150 g Golden Syrup
- 180 g Butter or Margarine
- 6 tablespoons Apple Sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and line a deep baking tray.
- Pour the oats into a large mixing bowl.
- In a small saucepan over a low heat, melt together the butter, sugar and syrup, stirring constantly until the butter is melted and there are no lumps– do not let it come to the boil.
- Pour this mixture over the oats.
- Mix carefully until the oats are all wet.
- Spoon around half of the oats into the baking tin.
- Use a spoon or your fingers to press down, and out to the edges until you’ve got a flat, even layer.
- Spoon on the apple sauce and use the back of a metal spoon to spread evenly.
- Spoon on the remaining oats, and use your fingers or a spoon to spread to the edges and press down so that most of the sauce is covered.
- Bake in the oven for around 25-30 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
- Leave in the tin to cool completely, before tipping out, peeling away the paper and slicing.

Notes
- I make my apple flapjacks in my brownie tin, which is around 10 inches x 8 inches which means they are fairly thin. I wouldn’t use a bigger tin, but you can use a smaller tin. I sometimes use a square cake tin, so they are thicker. Just increase the bake time by 5-10 minutes.
- Don’t worry if not all the sauce is covered or if some pokes through.
