What's in This Recipe?

Note: This is an overview of the ingredients. See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Brown Sugar. I like to use brown sugar because it adds flavor and beautiful color. It also helps in forming the structure of each bar of these flapjacks.

Demerara Sugar. Demerara sugar is not just used in this recipe to sweeten it but to also add crunch to the tops of the flapjacks.

Butter. It adds to the structure of the bars, and it also provides richness and tenderness to each bite one would make on this dish.

Maple Syrup. The base ingredient and flavor of this dish is maple syrup; with the addition of this ingredient to the mixture, the dish will come out tasting caramelly with a hint of vanilla, just like how maple syrup mostly tastes like.

Rolled Oats. Rolled oats give a delicious and mildly nutty flavor to your flapjacks. They also add texture and support to this baked dish.

How to Make Maple Syrup Flapjacks?

Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F and line a 20cm square baking tin with parchment paper.

In a saucepan, melt together butter, maple syrup and sugars over medium heat.

Stir in rolled oats until all the oats are well coated.

Tip: Make sure to use a saucepan that is large enough for all the ingredients to fit in. It will save you from making a mess in your kitchen.

Now, Pour the mixture into the baking pan and press down FIRMLY with something heavy.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until light golden brown.

Let it cool for 20 minutes before cutting it into bars.

Top Tips!

• Follow the recipe. This dish is easy to make and fool-proof; you just have to follow all the things written in the recipe to avoid making any mistakes.
• Do not take any shortcuts by increasing the heat of the oven to bake quicker because your flapjacks will only come out burnt and uncooked within.

Some Variations

• Melt some dark chocolates and drizzle them on top of your baked flapjacks. It does not only make these flapjacks look appetizing but also gives more flavor to the dish.
• If you want more crunchy and nutty flapjacks, you can easily mix crushed pecans with your ingredients.

Serving Suggestions

A hearty and creamy glass of milk for children in the morning can be a good combo with this recipe, and black coffee for adults will never go out of style as well.

Chocolate Bubble Tea can be paired with these flapjacks for an afternoon snack.

Personally. I like to serve these flapjacks as a standalone or with a cup of Caramel Latte for breakfast.
