Father’s Flippity-Jibbit Flapjacks






















Actually by Lynn Aoki, as told to Father







Long before Father established
the Tunnel Community as an alternative life style,
he would frequent a diner near the hospital.
At this diner,
he would order these Flapjacks
from a sweet little lass named Lynn.
Lynn was the head-waitress at this diner,
and among many dishes,
she served up this delicious taste treat.
One day, Father asked her for the recipe,
to which she willingly offered up to him.
Needless to say that Father never forgot her kindness,
and has gleefully given Lynn her yearly physical,
free of charge ever since!
Ahh Father...what a humanitarian you are!

Ingredients
You will need:

100g (4oz) Butter
50g (2z) Demerara sugar
2 x 15ml (2tblsp) golden syrup
Lynn admits:
"I use a maple flavored syrup."
(inovative Lynn!)
125g (5oz) Porridge oats
25g (1oz plain flour)

Topping:
Icing sugar and Water


Method:

1.  Melt butter, sugar and syrup over low heat,
stirring until dissolved
Remove from heat


2. Mix in porridge oats and flour
Press into a well greased
   20.5cm(8") shallow square tin


3. Bake for 15-20 minutes
at 180 degrees C 350 degrees F
or Gas mark 4 until golden brown
Mark into bars.  Leave to cool

4. Make icing with icing sugar
and a little (very little) water
    Spread a little icing on each flapjack

Lynn reminds us:
"ALWAYS remember to mark the bars as soon as
it comes out of the oven... if you don't, then you will have
ONE huge Flapjack!
Enjoy Lynn!"

Thank you Father...err I mean Lynn!
