Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. Grease and line the base of a 20cm square tin with baking paper.
- Heat 150g salted butter, 75g clear honey and 75g soft light brown sugar in a medium saucepan over a low heat, stirring to combine, until the butter is fully melted. Remove from the heat and stir in 250g Scottish oats and 100g frozen raspberries.
- Scrape into the prepared tin, smooth the top, then make about 24 small indents across the flapjack. Dot 75g raspberry jam into the indents, then bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown. Leave to cool completely in the tin before cutting into 12 pieces.
- Put 50g icing sugar in a bowl and stir in 2 tsp whisky (or water) to make a thick, pourable icing, then drizzle over the flapjacks. Will keep for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.
Tip: Freeze the un-iced flapjacks in an airtight container.
