Granola Flapjacks

This is a combination of two of my most popular recipes.

I’ve become quite well known for a decent flapjack and my Granola is made in many a Fit Camper’s kitchen.

So why not combine the two?!

So I did.

Ingredients
  • 300 - 400g gluten free oats
  • 250g packet of salted butter, I use Kerrygold
  • 80 - 100g granulated sugar (to taste)
  • 3 tablespoons runny honey (generous)
  • 100g mixed seeds
  • 75g desiccated coconut
  • 100g mixed dried fruit of your choice ( I like mixed berries, raisins, chopped apricots and dates)
  • 100g chopped mixed nuts
  • 75g ground almonds
  • Ground cinnamon to taste (about 1-2 teaspoons)
Options
  • Choose granola ingredients that you prefer.
  • Apricot and ground ginger is nice.
  • Mixed dried berries with cinnamon is tasty.
  • Chopped figs with mixed spice works well.
Method
  1. Pre heat oven to 180C, Gas 4, 350F.
  2. Line a flapjack tin with baking parchment.
  3. Melt the butter, sugar and honey in a large saucepan until melted but not bubbling.
  4. Add all the other ingredients and mix well so they are all coated and there is no surplus syrupy mix in the pan, it should be quite stiff to mix.
  5. Transfer into the pan and smooth over.
  6. Bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until it starts to brown slightly around the edges.
  7. Leave in the tin until completely cold.
  8. Either cut whilst warm or wait until cold and hardened and remove from tin and use a large knife to cut into 12-18 pieces.
