<yawn!> flapjacks again - but i don't have much butter!

[purplemonkeydishwasher]

I've got tons of oats, a full tin of golden syrup, some dried dates, sugar...but very little butter.
should i just give up?

how much butter do you have?

well, i actually have enough to make the flapjacks. but that would leave me butterless for the rest of the week! so i'd like to use as little as possible!

i have this recipe
*
75g unsalted butter
40g honey
half tsp bicarb
250g oats
25g sunflower seeds
25g nuts(optional)
2 ripe bananas
30g dried fruit(raisins,apricots etc)

oven 160
grease & line 20cm square tin
melt butter & honey
add bicarb & stir
add all other ingredients & mix again
spoon into tin
bake for 15-20 mins

thanks lullaby!

i ended up finding this recipe:

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

so we'll see if it turns out ok! (can i just say that i HATE being skint?!!)

oh honey your recipe sounds far less complicated!
can i have one when they're ready?[hopeful emoticon]

monkey that sounds like the recipe I use

if it looks too dry and you haven't any more butter, steal the mashed banana from Loo's recipe

really wishing i hadn't used the last of the oats for porridge this morning now!

update: flapjacks were fab! added chopped up dried dates.
very very yummy!
