90gSoft Light Brown Sugar
90gGolden Syrup
130gButter or Margarine
2tspAlmond Extract
4tbspCherry Jam
20gFlaked Almonds

Instructions
Grease and line a cake tin and preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
Mix oats and ground almonds together in a large mixing bowl.
Carefully melt the sugar, syrup, butter and almond extract in a small pan on the hob, or in the microwave, stirring often until smooth.
Pour the melted butter mixture over the oats and mix until they are all coated.
Tip half of this mix into the cake tin and use the back of a spoon or your fingers to press down and out to the edges, so it’s level and covers the tin.
Spoon on the jam and spread evenly.
Tip on the remaining oats and flatten and spread out until the jam is covered.
Sprinkle over flaked almonds.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes until the almonds are toasted and the oats have browned.
Melt the white chocolate in a small pan and drizzle over the top of the flapjack.
