How to make flapjacks

Hi everybody in this post I will be telling how to make some flapjacks. Now most people love flapjacks some people don't and I personally really like them I quite like them when there gooey and crumbly. In this recipe the flapjacks have some icing on them but you don't have to do the icing. I will be telling you how to make the icing in my next post.

• 175g butter
• 175g light brown sugar
• 350g rolled oats
• 1/2 lemon-finely grated zest (this is optional)

Step 1- Combine the butter, syrup and sugar in a medium saucepan and heat gently until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved.

Step 2- Take off the heat and stir in the oats, lemon zest and ginger. Mixing well

Step 3- Spoon into the prepared tin and smooth the surface with a palette knife.

Step 4- Bake for approximately 30 minutes.

Step 5- Leave to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes and then mark into 12 pieces. Leave to cool completely then turn out onto a chopping board and cut.
