I just tried mine. I like the texture but they seem to be lacking in a bit of taste. Needs cherry or peanut butter thrown in or maybe some cinnamon.

Jacdaw - you asked about savoury ones. I once made some cheese and onion ones, the recipe of which I got off the oats bag. As usual I didn't like them, but I took them into work and was amazed at how quickly they disappeared. There are probably plenty of recipes on the 'net and they'd be good for work lunch boxes.

I just remembered that I did once have a small piece of 3-seed flapjack made by a bloke who came to a festival with a group of my friends years ago. Although I haven't got a sweet tooth and don't like dry, chewy things; I had to admit that these were the best ones I'd tried. There was a bit of an added bonus to these flapjacks ...

I just made the cheese flapjacks; the mumsnet recipe. Nice, but a bit odd. Sort of like an oaty cheese scone.

They might be better with a stronger cheese than the one I used. But a good texture for eating while running, and carrying in a rucksack for 50 miles.

Fairy cake cases? Nah. Surely the definition of a flapjack includes corners of some variety.

Round flapjack is just a bit wrong.

Fetch Flapjack
20 x 30 ish cm tin, lined with baking paper
Double the quantities for a softer (thicker) result

Melt butter, sugar & syrup together. Stir in oats well. Gently press into tin. Bake 180*C 25-30mins.
Variations: 1) 2 ripe bananas, mashed, mix well in; 2) mix in handfuls of raisins, chopped dried apricots/dates, seeds etc; 3) in double quantity, layer about a quarter jar of jam in between 2 layers (raspberry/apricot/blackcurrant/plum/mincemeat...)
