I want to make a big batch of something which I can eat on my way home from work... something that will keep my hunger at bay but also not start my IBS off!! I was thinking something flapjack like, maybe not too nutty as sometimes I am sensitive to them... maybe something with chocolate?

Does anyone have a recipe they can post?

Ingredients

75g of butter or margarine
50 - 75g light brown sugar
1 tablespoon of golden syrup
175g of porridge oats

Baking Directions:

1. Put the butter or margarine, sugar and golden syrup into a saucepan and stir over a low heat until the fat and sugar have melted.

2. Add the porridge oats and blend thoroughly.

3. Press into a well greased 18cm square sandwich tin.

4. Bake in the centre of a moderate oven at 180c or 350f or gas mark 4 for 25 minutes or until evenly golden brown.

5. Mark into fingers whilst warm.

6. Allow to become almost cold in the tin before removing.

7. Enjoy!

To make chocolate flapjacks:

Prepare flapjack mixture as above. Cool slightly then add 50g of chopped chocolate pieces before putting into the sandwich tin.

They turned out well, not sure they need 25 mins though so may reduce that next time. I tried them warm and they were all chewy which I love... The really test will be tomorrow on my way home from work!

Well, they are in the oven. I used for the chocolate, broken up Divine dark chocolate Easter egg (I cant believe we still had one!) and used a mix of oats and oatmeal (as I have loads of it for some reason). I didn't have a square tin, so its in a round one.
