Step By Step Instructions

Detailed instructions are the recipe card below. But here is a quick step by step guide of how to make cranberry and white chocolate flapjacks:

Step 1

• Before you start making the flapjack mix, preheat oven to 180C degrees (Fan).
• Grease and line the bottom and sides of a square baking tin (see equipment list) with greaseproof / nonstick parchment paper.

Step 2

• In a medium pan, gently melt the butter, sugar and golden syrup over a low heat until softened.

Step 3

• Stir in the oats and cranberries.

Step 4

• Allow the oat mixture to cool then stir in the white chocolate pieces / white chocolate chips.

Step 5

• Spoon the oat mixture into the prepared baking tin and press down all over.

Step 6

• Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown (cooking time may vary depending on your oven).

Step 7

• Leave in the tin placed on a wire rack to cool.

Step 8

• Once cooled melt the rest of the chocolate and spread it over the top of the flapjack slab.

Step 9

• Once the chocolate has set remove the oat slab from the tin, place on a wooden board and cut into 9 squares.

Substitutions

• Unsalted Butter - you could use cooking margarine instead.
• Demerara / Light Brown Sugar
• Golden Syrup - you could use honey but the flapjack will taste different and may fall apart.
• Porridge Oats - a budget bag of breakfast porridge oats is fine. Don't use quick cooking oats or jumbo oats It's rolled oats you want to use here.
• Dried Cranberries - use only dried cranberries as fresh or frozen will make the mixture too runny.
• White chocolate - you can make these flapjacks without white chocolate. Or you can substitute with dark chocolate.

It's great value for money and a kitchen essential.

Made with goldflon non stick coating it prevents food from sticking to the pan.

FAQ's

How To Store Cranberry Flapjacks?

The flapjacks will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days. They are best kept cool and can be stored in the fridge which will help them hold their shape. Place some greaseproof paper between flapjack layers to stop them sticking together.

Why have my flapjacks fallen apart?

Slicing them into squares whilst they're still warm can often cause them to fall apart. Instead, score the slab in the tin into 9 squares and then place the tin in the fridge. This will cool them quicker and help them hold their shape.

Can I freeze flapjacks?

You can freeze flapjacks. Wrap each square in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Ensure it's thoroughly defrosted before eating.
