By Beverley GlockPublished on 29 November 2018Flapjack is a good food for school lunchboxes and snacks, made with oats which are slow release carbs plus helping towards your Five a Day with apples and blackberries. Easy to make, supervise younger children if you allow them to use the stove top otherwise let them prepare the fruit and weigh out the ingredients. If you can't get hold of jumbo oats then double the quantity of rolled oats.

  • 125 g of rolled oats

  • 2 tbsp of golden syrup
  • 125 g of jumbo oats
  • 1 large bramley apple, peeled and grated
  • 250 g of blackberries, washed

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180c/gas mark 5.

    Melt the butter, sugar and golden syrup in a saucepan over a medium heat.

  • Step 3

    When melted, remove from the heat, add the oats and grated apple and mix well.

  • Step 4

    Mash the blackberries gently with a fork.

  • Step 5

    Grease a 20cm square cake tin and line with baking parchment (this makes it easier to get the flapjack out when it's cooked).

  • Step 6

    Press half the flapjack mix into the base of the tin, smear the mashed blackberries gently over the top and top with the rest of the flapjack so the blackberries are sandwiched in the middle.

  • Step 7
