Strawberry flapjacks are a delightful twist on the classic plain flapjack, combining the chewy texture of oats with the sweetness of fresh strawberries. Whether enjoyed as a satisfying breakfast treat or a snack on-the-go, these fruity flapjacks are sure to become a new favourite.<\/p>\n I enjoy making these flapjacks in particular in summer when I have a glut of strawberries from the garden or when I have a punnet of strawberries that need to be used up before they go soft!<\/p>\n A traditional chewy flapjack with those lovely crispy bits around the edge, the pieces of strawberry adds colour, an amazing jammy flavour and softness.<\/p>\n These strawberry flapjacks are a summery twist on my rhubarb flapjack<\/a> and apricot flapjack<\/a> recipes.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s what you will need for this recipe \u2013 use this as a list for shopping or for gathering together the ingredients in your kitchen.

Weigh out your butter, golden syrup and light brown sugar, into a bowl.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Step 2: <\/strong>Melt together by microwaving. Two minutes on high, stirring after each minute, should be plenty.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Step 3: <\/strong>Measure out the oats in another bowl. Tip the butter\/sugar mixture into the oats and stir well so the butter mixture coats the oats fully.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Step 4:<\/strong> Take your strawberries, rinse them and then remove the stems. Chop into small pieces, about 1 cm square.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Step 5: <\/strong>Mix the strawberries into the oat mixture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Step 6:<\/strong> Line a baking pan with baking parchment. My tin is 9 x 9 inches (23 x 23 cm). Tip the strawberry and oat mixture into the lined pan and use a wooden spoon to press it firmly into the tin. This helps to prevent the flapjacks being too crumbly and makes them firmer so don\u2019t skip this part!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Step 7<\/strong>: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top of the flapjacks is golden. Keep an eye out that any pieces of strawberry on top don\u2019t burn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Step 8: <\/strong>Remove the flapjack tray from the oven, leave to cool for a few minutes, then score the flapjacks into 9 (or more) pieces while still warm. As they cool they will harden and you can then cut them fully through using the scored lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n These gooey strawberry flapjacks will be delicious in packed lunches or picnics, as a mid-afternoon snack or with tea or coffee!<\/p>\n Even enjoy them warm with ice cream for a gooey treat!<\/p>\n Note that these strawberry flapjacks become quite soft due to the water content of strawberries. They taste great though!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n If you want them to be firmer and more portable, my recipe hints would be as follows:<\/p>\n Add white chocolate chips<\/strong> for a white chocolate and strawberry flapjack.<\/p>\n Use some freeze-dried strawberry pieces<\/strong> in place of the fresh strawberry for a version you can enjoy all year long, even when strawberries are not in season.<\/p>\n Add a layer of strawberry jam<\/strong> in the middle of the flapjacks and top with a few chopped strawberries, so you can reduce the cost by using fewer strawberries.<\/p>\n Flapjacks go soft in about 2 or 3 days, possibly less time in the summer time.<\/p>\n Because these contain fresh strawberry, some parts of the flapjack will probably be quite soft anyway due to the fruit. <\/p>\n Once baked, I store these in an airtight container in the fridge and use within 2-3 days.<\/p>\n You can freeze flapjack in portions double-wrapped in plastic wrap or foil, then in a freezer bag, for up to three months.<\/p>\n Looking for other recipes like this?
