Homemade Honey Flapjacks
The most delicious homemade flapjacks made with honey and 2 other ingredients. This recipe is super quick and easy, and the taste is so damn good. Let’s get baking!

I can’t believe how tasty these honey flapjacks are, there’s no golden syrup or refined sugar added and oh my it still tastes great. I have to admit, I’m a BIG fan of golden syrup flapjacks, but actually, it was not missed at all…
The honey works as a two-in-one ingredient, not only does it add sweetness, but it also helps to bind all the ingredients together. It’s naturally sweetened, soft and chewy – what more could you ask for?
Oh, and it gets even better, these honey flapjacks are ready to eat in under 30 minutes! Plus, you only need one mixing bowl, a baking tin and 3 ingredients to make it!

Honey Flapjacks Recipe Ingredients
Below are the 3 ingredients I used to make these flapjacks:
- Porridge Oats: Any brand of porridge oats is fine to use. Do not use instant porridge oats, otherwise the flapjacks will turn out stodgy and mushy.
- Honey: Use your favourite brand of honey; I use whatever brand I find in the house at the time.
- Margarine Or Butter: Butter adds richness and helps to bind all the ingredients together. Use salted or unsalted butter, this is up to your personal preference.
Add Fruit Or Nuts
You can take this recipe as a base and add in your favourite additions and flavourings. A few examples of dried fruit you can add are dried apples, raisins, dried apricot and dried coconut- like my fruit flapjack recipe.
If you want to add some crunch, you can chuck in nuts, diced peanuts, cashews, almonds or walnuts. I like to add flavourings like almond extract and vanilla extract to add even more flavour without altering the texture.
