Fruit Flapjack Recipe

I make this at least once a week because everyone in the family loves it, and it is a very forgiving recipe for swapping and changing ingredients or quantities. i measure merely by eye and it always turns out right anyway!

dry ingredients – mix in a bowl

about 8oz of cereals ie porridge oats, crushed cornflakes, crushed weetabix – basically whatever you have or needs using up
2oz  sugar
2oz self raising flour
chopped up fruit in little tiny squares such as apples, or soft fruits like raspberries/blueberries, or raisins – just add as much as you like or have.
you can also add some chopped nuts or coconut if u like.

wet ingredients – put in a pan and melt together

2 large tbsp of margerine
2 large tbsp of golden syrup

Mix the wet with the dry until all the dry is coated and wet looking. Press firmly with the back of a spoon into a stick-proof swiss roll tin, and pop into oven for 20 mins about 180 c.

As soon as it comes out of oven, use a knife and cut into squares but then leave in tin until it has cooled. you can then add some melted choc on top as another option, or leave plain.

Perfect for breakfast on the run or in school lunchboxes, and you can even pretend its healthy what with all the cereals and fruit.
