[edit] Detailed Instructions for Chewy Flapjack
- Put the margarine, sugar & golden syrup in saucepan (or microwaveable bowl if using a microwave oven) and heat until it is all liquid.
- Meanwhile line the baking tin with greaseproof paper.
- Mix all the oats into the liquid.
- Put the mixture into the baking tin & press flat.
- Bake at 175 deg C (Gas Mark 4) for 25 to 30 minutes. Warning: the timing is tolerant but accuracy in temperature is critical.

[edit] Australian flapjacks
I have edited the paragraph re: Australia as it was kind of redundant, and the word 'flapjack' is known in Australia (certainly used in my family), although it's not widespread and reflects the American definition rather than the British. Natgoo 19:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
