Cherry and Almond Flapjacks



Taken from my Mum's Flapjack recipe with a couple of extra ingredients to make a terrible nice addition to a cup of tea! Extremely easy too.

Ingredients:
100g Butter
75g Golden Syrup
75g Soft Brown Sugar
200g Rolled Oats 
10 Glace Cherries cut into eighths
1 1/2 teaspoons of Almond extract.

Melt the butter, golden syrup and sugar in a pan on a low heat until melted. Stir in the oats and mix well. Add the glace cherries and almond extract and stir again.

Spread into a buttered swiss roll tin (20x30cm) I would recommend putting baking parchment in the bottom as I had a lot stuck to it! and smooth top with a knife or fork.

Bake in the oven for about 25 mins on 180 degrees C depending on how brown you want your flapjack to be. 

Cut into fingers when you take it out of the oven.
