I want to ensure that my vegan friends, and those who suffer from lactose/dairy intolerances, can join in the baking fun. So I have adapted my usual veggie flapjack recipe to a vegan version and road tested it today. I am pleased to report that it works. Really well. In fact I think I will ditch the butter version as this one is so good!
For 12 pieces you need:
6oz vitalite/vegan margerine
6oz soft light brown sugar
2 tbsp golden syrup
5oz rolled porridge oats
5oz scotch porridge oats
Begin by melting the spread, sugar and golden syrup together. Once this is done, add the oats to the pan and mix well. Turn out into a lined swiss roll tin and bake in a moderate (170 degree) oven for 10 mins. Leave to cool in the tin for 15 mins or so before removing. Slice into portions and try not to eat it all on one day...
