  Disgustingly tasty! So nice but so much naughtiness in them. A bit gooey but I don't like my flapjacks dry and sticking to the top of your mouth! Worth a go and everyone will love them.

  I know this recipe is 2 years old but found it while flicking through my old magazines and decided to try it out - good fun with the kids and thought I'd secretly get some fruit into my 4 year old. I'm sorry I wasted my time and ingredients though. And I'm sorry I didn't check the comments either. I was so disappointed because I love GF recipes! Just like other reviewers they burnt on the edges and were gooey in the middle. As it was my first time baking flapjacks I didn't realise that there was too much butter and sugar - so next time I will cut down the amount - but I will try them again as I loved the spiced plum flavour!

  Made these vegan by using pure instead of butter and they were really good! Great in lunchboxes :)

  Yes this recipe was really scrumptious although I went with other reviewers and only used 250g of butter, Demerara sugar, and sultanas drained out of 200g container of pot apricot & prunes. All other ingredients excepts plums obviously and it has turned out delicious and moist and chewy. Yum!

  I too only put 250 g of sugar and less butter.I also made them with blackberries as I have a glut of them . I also topped them with a yoghurt icing.Very fattening but delicious. Everyone loved them and it's beats paying a certain whole food chain for them!

  its getting 2 stars because the flavour was great, but otherwise i'd have given it zilch, way too much butter, oven temp too hot (i use an oven thermometer) and its stuck to the greaseproof paper. i read the review where someone had contacted the BBC goodfood team to query the amount of butter and the team maintain it was the right amount, well it was so much butter it bubbled over and and burnt onto the bottom of my oven!! i cannot fathom how the team still maintain this is a good tested recipe?? i should have listened to the other reviewers and ditched this before i started!!

  Works well when you use 250g of sugar and 230g of butter.

  I thought the butter was just right. Are you sure you guys have been cooking it for long enough? I cooked it till it was dark brown and I didn't have to 'mop up' any butter at all. I then tipped it out of the tin and put it back in the oven after I turned it off, just to dry the base. It turned out perfect, dry and crispy on the outside and moist and fruity on the inside.....with the addition of some raisins and stem ginger!

  Fantastic flapjack. I've been looking for a recipe that is very flexible to use , the butter is just right and is delish warm from the oven with custard. However taking out 100g of butter makes it a little firmer to hold. You can use any fruit filling or even chocolate chips, because they are in the middle of the mix they don't burn. Won't be using any other recipe, hope you enjoy it too!
