Chocolate, Nut & Honey Flapjacks

Flapjacks, Speedy, Traybakes | 23rd August 2009 | By Choclette

Have made these flapjacks two days running now. Yesterday, some energy bars were needed to feed the workers and today we are off on a picnic – hummm – weather looking decidedly drizzly, so might end up as a picnic in the car! Plans set in motion now, so proceed we will, rain or no rain.

Melted 5oz unsalted butter with 2 tbsp runny honey in a large pan.
To this mixed in: 8oz rolled oats, pinch of salt, 2.5oz demerara sugar, 2oz mixed chopped nuts and 50g of dark chocolate cut into chunks.
Spread this into a buttered 8” by 10” baking tin and baked for 17 mins at 180°C (gas 4).
Left to go cold then cut into 12 squares.

Again I used my standard flapjack recipe from Gaia’s Kitchen and modified it, substituting honey for the syr

up and adding nuts and chocolate. The result was very satisfying – hence the making of a 2nd batch early this morning. Having little chunks of chocolate was a great addition and doing it this way didn’t overwhelm the taste of honey. With the 2nd batch I remembered to use my signature sesame seeds sprinkled over the top.

Another change I can make to my flapjack recipe. Honey and walnuts, two of my favourite ingredients.

My poor old rose struggles in our overcrowded and shady garden. But she’s had another refresh and has produced her 3rd flower this year. She makes the best rose syrup. Find the recipe on my blog.

Even though I’m not much of a coffee drinker, sometimes when there’s sunshine, nothing but an iced coffee @olivecocafe will do. #scrumptioustribe #summerdrinks

I may not be on holiday, but I did make this scrumptious smoked paprika aioli yesterday, so it sort of felt like I was on my hols. I used our own homegrown garlic too. It’s #sauce for the #froothiebetterlife #photoprompt and #holiday for #foodiesfotos
