- 300 g (10.5 oz) rolled oats
- 175 g ( 6 oz) butter, unsalted can be substituted for dairy free spread
- 175 g ( 6 oz) lotus biscoff spread
- 125 g (4 .5 oz) golden syrup
- 40 g ( 1.5 oz ) light brown sugar
Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan, 350˚F). Line a 7” by 7” square baking tin with baking parchment paper or use a silicone baking tin.
In a large saucepan, melt the butter, light brown sugar, biscoff spread and golden syrup over a low heat. Stir continuously until melted and combined, then remove from heat.
Add the oats to the wet ingredients. Mix well until everything is evenly coated and there are no dry bits.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking tin and press down firmly with the back of a spoon to create an even layer.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.
Let the flapjacks cool completely in the tin before cutting into squares and enjoying.

Tips & Tricks
- This recipe has been tested using a 7” by 7” baking tin. Note that cooking times will vary if you use a different sized tin.
- Melt on a low heat. Gently melt the butter, sugar, and syrup over a low heat to avoid burning.
- Check the doneness of the flapjacks after 15 minutes. The middle of the flapjacks should still be slightly soft and a bit wobbly. This is what you want, it’s how you get soft and chewy flapjacks!
- Let the flapjacks cool completely before removing them from the tin. Otherwise, they may crumble and fall apart when you try to cut them.
- Drizzle with Biscoff. For an extra burst of Biscoff flavour, drizzle some melted Biscoff spread or white chocolate over the cooled flapjacks before cutting them.
How Can I Make These Flapjacks Allergy Friendly or Vegan?
- Make It Dairy-Free - Biscoff spread is dairy-free so the only change you need to make is to swap the butter for a dairy-free spread.
- Make It Gluten-Free - Biscoff spread does contain gluten, so you will need to make your own. Here is a great recipe from Gluten Free Alice. You will also need to use gluten-free rolled porridge oats.
- Make It Vegan - Use dairy-free spread and make sure you use golden syrup and not honey and the flapjacks will be vegan.
