Healthy Peanut Butter Flapjacks

Healthy Peanut Butter Flapjacks

Ingredients:

  • 250g porridge oats (rolled oats)
  • 80g dark brown sugar
  • 100g smooth peanut butter
  • 50g golden syrup
  • 50g salted butter

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350 Fahrenheit, 160 fan oven).
  2. In a pan over low to medium heat, add cubed butter, sugar, and golden syrup. Stir gently with a silicone spatula until melted and combined.
  3. Take the pan off the heat and add the peanut butter. Mix well to get a smooth texture.
  4. In a separate bowl, add the oats and then pour in the peanut butter mixture. Combine thoroughly.
  5. Line a square baking tin (around 20cm diameter) with baking paper. Spread the oat mixture evenly into the tin and press down firmly for an even bake.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
  7. Take out the tin and let it cool slightly before cutting it into squares or bars with a sharp knife.

Tips:

  • You can substitute honey for golden syrup.
  • Use crunchy peanut butter for added texture.
  • For an extra treat, melt some dark chocolate and drizzle it over the flapjacks after they’ve cooled slightly.
  • Let the flapjacks cool completely before cutting to avoid them crumbling.
