Ingredients

• 300 grams Gluten-free rolled oats
• 150 grams Unsalted butter
• 150 grams Golden syrup
• 90 grams Light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Prepare a 9x9 inch square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the unsalted butter, golden syrup, and light brown sugar. Stir occasionally until the butter has completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the salt and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Add the gluten-free rolled oats to the saucepan and mix until the oats are fully coated with the syrup mixture.

Step 5

Transfer the oat mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to press the mixture evenly and firmly into the pan.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 7

Allow the flapjacks to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then remove them from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Once cooled, cut the flapjacks into 12 equal squares or bars and serve.
