Oat bars

Oat bars: essential kayaker fodder

Stuff How
  • 14oz (4 cups) oats, half rolled, half wholegrain
  • 1 cup wholemeal flour
  • 2/3 cup demerara sugar
  • 1/3 tsp salt
  • 6oz butter (170g)
  • cup of pecans or almonds
  • 4 dsp golden syrup
  • Melt the squiggy stuff, add to the dry stuff
  • If too dry add a little water
  • If too damp and sticky add a few more oats
  • Mix until it binds and doesn't crack when squidged
  • Squidge them into your special oat-bar sized cake tin, buttered
  • Or, better, flatten them into a shallow tray and score the joins in (Ross's trick)
  • Bake at 180°C for around 30 minutes until browned (top level in my oven)
  • They come out soft but harden as they cool
