Chocolate Chip Flapjack Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP FLAPJACK RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 180°C (gas mark 4, 350°F) and line a square baking tin with parchment paper. I used a 9″ square baking tin.
• Add butter, golden syrup and light brown sugar to a large mixing bowl and melt in the microwave on a medium heat. Stop the microwave every 10 to 15 seconds and give the mixture a stir. Repeat this until the mixture has melted.
• Add porridge oats to the melted ingredients and mix together until thoroughly combined. Make sure the oats are generously coated.
• Add the chocolate chips into the flapjack mixture and mix it together until evenly distributed.
• Pour the flapjack mixture into a lined baking tin and spread the mixture evenly into all four corners. Then press down using the back of a spoon.
• Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until the edges have turned golden brown. Once baked, leave the flapjack to cool down before cutting.

EASY CHOCOLATE CHIP FLAPJACKS (BRITISH OAT BARS)

Steps:

• Measure 175g Salted Butter, 120g Sugar and 200g Golden Syrup into a saucepan or microwaveable mixing bowl. I cut my butter into chunks to make it quicker to melt.
• Heat the butter etc over a medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, the butter is melted and everything has melded together. Keep stirring while this is happening, it will only take a couple of minutes.OrMicrowave in 30 second bursts stirring each time until everything is dissolved, melted and come together.
• Take the pan or bowl off the heat or out of the microwave without delay - there is no need for the mixture to boil or stay on the heat.
• Measure 360g Porridge Oats and 1 tsp Baking Powder into the pan/bowl. Stir until the oats are well combined.
• At this point is it a good idea to allow the mixture to cool a bit. You can sit the pan in some cold water, move the mix to a shallow tray or just set it aside to take its own sweet time. You can move onto the next stage straight away but you will get chocolate flapjacks rather than chocolate chip flapjacks.
• While the mix cools, preheat the oven to 180c fan / 190c / 375f and line a 8"/20cm square tin with baking paper or silicone liner.
• Once the mixture is not warm anymore (it doesn't need to be chilled or actively cold, stir in 200g Chocolate Chips.
• Spoon the mixture into the lined baking tray.
• Make sure to press it into the corners and try to make it an even thickness all the way across.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until the flapjacks are golden all over. They will still feel very soft when you take them out but they will set up as they cool.
• Allow to cool in the tin before taking the flapjacks out and cutting into 12 bars (3 x 4). For smaller bites you can cut into 18 (3 x 6).
