CHOCOLATE ORANGE OAT BARS

 

These flapjack-style biscuits are very moreish. Try making them with a

couple of chopped apples and mixed spice instead of the chocolate, orange

and fruit.

 

finely grated rind of 2 oranges

250 g unsalted butter

250 g caster sugar

175 g golden syrup

425 g porridge oats

100 g sultanas

100 g ready-to-eat dried apricots, roughly chopped

2 tbsp sunflower seeds

50 g plain chocolate chips

75 g plain chocolate

 

Preheat the oven to 180 ºC / 350 ºF / Gas 4. Lightly oil and base line a 20

x 30 cm shallow cake tin.

In a large pan, heat the orange rind, butter, sugar and golden syrup

together over a low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has

dissolved. Remove from the heat and stir in the oats, sultanas, apricots and

sunflower seeds. Allow to cool slightly, then stir in the chocolate chips.

Spoon into the prepared tin. Level the surface and bake for 20 - 25 minutes

until golden. Mark into 14 bars, then leave to stand in the tin until almost

cold.

Melt the plain chocolate in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Turn

the oat bar out on to a wooden board and discard the lining paper. Break

into bars as marked. Spoon the melted chocolate into a greaseproof paper

piping bag, snip a tiny piece off the end and drizzle the chocolate randomly

over the oat bars. (Or just drizzle the chocolate from a teaspoon.) Store in

an airtight tin for up to one week.
