Flapjacks

Not those highly processed, odd tasting, chocolate flavoured topped things you can buy at petrol stations.  Not the packets of flapjack bites you can buy in the supermarket that just encourage you to munch mindlessly until the box is gone.  No.  Healthier flapjacks made with only 3 real ingredients.

200g butter
1 cup honey
2 cups oats

Melt butter and honey.
Add to oats.
Spread and press hard into a square pan lined with baking paper.
Bake for 20 minutes.

Leave to cool totally before cutting into squares.  They are a little more crumbly than shop-bought ones but who cares when they taste this good and you know what's in them?

You can add anything else you like to these, like raisins, grated apple, dark chocolate chips, nuts, grated orange rind etc.

Again this is not a calorie-free treat so should still be eaten in moderation.

Enjoy x
