I prefer not to buy commercially available Flap Jack and, therefore, make my own...
From The Inexplicable World of Outa_Spaceman... |
My recipe goes like this (sorry about the 'Napoleonic' style quantities):
Ingredients:
100 grams of butter
100 grams of demerara sugar
250 grams of porridge oats
2 tsps of golden syrup
A couple of handfuls of any dried fruit available.
Method:
Melt butter and sugar in a pan over a low heat.
Add golden syrup then stir in oats and fruit.
Spread to an even depth in a well greased oven-proof dish.
Cook in a pre-heated oven at 180c for about 25 mins.
Cut into squares whilst still warm then allow to cool.
Wrap a couple of squares in grease-proof paper, cycle off to a distant point, remove from grease-proof paper and eat them.
(BTW Linda says this isn't 'cooking'..)
Linda has decided that it may be a good idea to make her own plum wine...

There's a good deal of furious activity going on in this demijohn...
'Only another 6 months to go' says Linda...

Oooh, what a lovely shade of pink! Looks mighty tasty, as does your Flapjack Recipe. I'll have to make a batch to take with me on my next forraging expedition.
I'll be round in 6 months for the grand "uncorking" ;-)
* "excuse me waiter this wine is corked"
* "Yes, I know, I just uncorked it!"
Your opinion of it's tastiness may have been shaken if you'd seen it being strained through a pair of tights..
I am considering trying out a home-brew kit..
Which may, or may not, be a good idea...
