Ingredients:

2/3 cup butter
150g
2 tbsp maple syrup
30g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
2 tbsp lemon juice
30g
1 cup oats
90g
2 tbsp almonds
30g
2 tbsp sesame seeds
30g
1/3 cup raisins
60g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
2 garlic cloves
6g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking dish or pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleanup.
2. Melt Butter Mixture: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the maple syrup, brown sugar, and lemon juice. Stir the mixture continuously until the sugar has dissolved and the ingredients are well combined.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, chopped almonds, sesame seeds, raisins, and cinnamon.
4. Add Garlic: Mince the garlic cloves finely and add them to the wet ingredients in the saucepan. Stir well to ensure the garlic is evenly distributed.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the melted butter mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are coated with the butter mixture.
6. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down evenly with a spatula to ensure it is compact and level.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly firm to the touch.
8. Cool and Cut: Remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the granola to cool in the dish for about 15 minutes. Once slightly cooled, transfer the granola to a cutting board by lifting the parchment paper. Cut into bars or squares using a sharp knife.
9. Serve or Store: Enjoy your flapjack granola bars as a snack or breakfast treat! Store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh.

Tips:

- Ensure the butter and sugar are fully melted and combined before adding the other ingredients to ensure even distribution.

- If you prefer a chewier granola, reduce the baking time slightly.

- Feel free to customize the recipe by adding your favorite nuts, seeds, or dried fruits.

- Make sure to press the mixture firmly into the baking dish to help it stick together and form bars.

- Store your flapjack granola in an airtight container to keep it fresh for up to two weeks.
