Vegan Flapjacks

In which I make some vegan flapjacks...

Several of my colleagues are vegan so what better excuse to modify a traditional recipe?

Ingredients

Ready to bake!

  • 300 g (10 oz) oats

  • 175 g (6 oz) brown sugar

  • 175 ml (6 fl oz) vegetable oil

  • 4 tbsp golden syrup

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan). 

  2. Heat the golden syrup in a pan and then dissolve the sugar into it.

  3. Add oil to the mixture and keep heating until well combined. 

  4. Remove from the heat and stir the oats into the mixture.

  5. Place in a greased square baking tin (I used a 24cm/10” tin).

  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes.*

  7. Remove from the oven and leave to cool before removing from the tin and cutting into squares or rectangles.

  8. Enjoy the gooey goodness!

Enjoy!

*In the non-vegan version of this recipe butter is used, which seems to aid in the setting of the flapjacks. You may want to keep cooking them until you see a crust starting to form.

Tom Out!
