Chilli Chocolate Flapjacks

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 18x18cm baking tray with parchment paper.

   Tip: Use a lined baking tray to make flapjack removal easier.

2. 2

   In a large saucepan, melt the coconut oil and golden syrup over low heat.

   Tip: Stir occasionally until smooth.

3. 3

   Add the oats, dried fruit, and chilli flakes to the saucepan and stir to combine.

   Tip: Be careful not to burn the mixture.

4. 4

   Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips until melted.

   Tip: Use a spatula to ensure the chocolate is fully incorporated.

5. 5

   Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until combined.

   Tip: Make sure the mixture is smooth and well combined.

6. 6

   Stir in the salt and mix well.

   Tip: Don't forget to add the salt for flavour.

7. 7

   Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking tray and press into a flat layer.

   Tip: Use your hands or a spatula to shape the mixture into a flat layer.

8. 8

   Let the mixture cool and set for 10-15 minutes before cutting into bars.

   Tip: Be patient, as the flapjacks will be sticky when first removed from the oven.

9. 9

   Cut into bars and serve.

   Tip: Cut into bars or squares, depending on your preference.
