Speaking about her , she said: “It’s tried and tested, and truly perfected – the only easy flapjack you’ll ever need.”

To make real, authentic flapjacks, golden syrup is a must, claimed the baker, as honey or maple syrup won’t cut it.

While these flapjacks can be made with just four ingredients, I decided to go one step further and add chocolate to the top.

Having tasted these flapjacks, I’d recommend cutting them into very small squares and serving them with a cup of tea, as they are very sweet.

Ingredients for flapjacks

Ingredients 

200g butter

120g golden syrup

200g soft light brown sugar

400g porridge oats

200g chocolate

Method

For this , I started by pre-heating the oven to 160C Fan before greasing and lining my baking tin. I’d recommend using a large tin so the flapjacks aren’t as thick and cook quicker.

In a pan, I heated up the butter, golden syrup and sugar – stirring regularly – until melted together. This can also be done in the microwave, just use a microwave-proof dish and remove to stir frequently.

Baked flapjack

Bake for about 22 to 25 minutes (Image: Angela Patrone)

Once all combined, I mixed in the oats until they were coated in the melted butter mixture.

I then transferred the mixture to the prepared tin and smoothed the mixture into the corners using a fork.

Bake for about 22 to 25 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and the middle still has a slight wobble.

It may look like it has not completely baked, but don’t worry as it will set as it cools down.

The edges will have risen a little, so press back down with a cold spoon, if desired. Leave to cool completely in the tin.

Once cooled, I melted the chocolate before spreading it out evenly onto the flapjacks.

After the chocolate had set, I removed the flapjacks from the tin and greaseproof paper and sliced them.
