Notes

TIP: If you see spots of white oats in your flapjack mixture, then it hasn’t been mixed thoroughly enough. It should take on the golden-brown colour of the melted syrup when mixed thoroughly.

Flapjacks Harden As They Cool

Yes, they do! Flapjacks are quite soft when freshly taken out of the oven. As the flapjacks are left to cool down they harden. That’s why it’s important to cut flapjacks when they are cold as they’re less likely to break apart.
