Chewy Flapjacks

---

This is from the good food magazine. It's chewier than regular flapjacks because of the bananas. Use porridge oats rather than jumbo oats, which make the mixture too crumbly. My kids love them - i'm sure yours will too!!

Steps

---

Preheat oven to 180c / gas 4 and butter a 23cm / 9in x 33cm / 13in swiss roll tin.

---

Melt together the butter , sugar and syrup in a large saucepan over a low heat , then stir in the oats , cinnamon , baking powder and a pinch of salt until well combined.

---

Peel and mash the bananas and add to the mixture , stirring well to combine.

---

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden brown.

---

The mixture will feel fairly firm to the touch.

---

Transfer the tin to a wire rack and cut the mixture into bars while still hot.

---

Leave until completely cold before removing with a palette knife.
