Flapjacks - day 16 - 31 days of food






My to tins were empty but luckily my cupboards were not bare. Oats, coconut, honey, butter, soft brown sugar, dried cranberries, cherries & apricots were worked together into the most delicious flapjacks. That I could serve as an after lunch as a sweet bite with a cup of tea or coffee.
As I felt the mixture with my hands or reminded me of the Australian Anzac biscuits which would have added some flour to the recipe. So I decided to bake some of the flapjacks as little biscuits. The result, chewy cookies perfect for a
Cup of coffee or an energy boost.
Here's the recipe
Ingredients
6oz butter
3oz soft light brown sugar
7fl oz clear honey
2 tbsp maple syrup

If you'd like to make the flapjack biscuits. Place flatten little blobs of the mixture on a baking sheet & cook for 5-9 minutes at 180' watch to make sure these do not burn.
