Maple, date and banana flapjacks

My local greengrocers has yummy Dorset Cereals for sale very cheaply as they're at their Best Before date so I thought I'd do somehing with them.

* 450g of Date and Banana fruity porridge oats
* 75g soft brown sugar
* 300g butter (should be unsalted but I didn't have any)
* 75g golden syrup
*75g maple flavour syrup (I guess you could use the real thing but I prefer to save that for pouring)


Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas Mark 5

1. Mix the sugar and the oats.
2. Melt the butter and syrup together on a low heat- you will need a big pan for this.
3. Stir in the oats and sugar mixture.
4. Press into a buttered tin, or a silicone tray.
5. Bake for 25 minutes.

I can't tell you what these taste like as they're in the oven at the moment! I'm going to serve them with whipped cream and bananas for pudding tonight.
