    Those are not Flapjack's as I remember them, they are pancakes.

    If I remember correctly the Flapjacks my Mother made were made mainly of porridge oats and Llyles Golden Syrup.

    From Google

    This is my recipe for Flapjack, inherited from my English mother. It doesn't have golden syrup in it, but you could try using 3 oz of Lyles with 3 oz brown sugar and seeing how it turns out. I'm sure it would work quite well.
    10 -12 pieces (change servings and units)

    Annie, you are really missing out. The flapjacks that David had as a kid are the ones we still have in Britain......and they are gorgeous. Though one can get them with raisans, nuts, chocolate chips etc, the best are the plain ones, especially the home made ones.
