A delightful twist on the classic flapjack, these chewy oat bars are sweetened with honey and brown sugar for a rich and satisfying treat.
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
Preheating ensures even baking from the start.
In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter, honey, and brown sugar together, stirring until smooth.
Stir constantly to prevent the sugar from burning.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the oats until fully coated.
Ensure all oats are evenly coated for consistent texture.
Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper and spread the mixture evenly into the dish.
Press the mixture down firmly to create an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Check the edges for a golden color to ensure doneness.
While still warm, score the bars into portions, then let them cool completely in the dish.
Scoring while warm makes cutting easier later.
Once cool, cut along the scored lines and serve.
Use a sharp knife for clean cuts.
