Oh he was doing so so well! Gary, the creator of BEREAVED SINGLE DAD, has already delighted us with perfect Victoria Sponge and Apple Crumble today, but the baking rollercoaster has taken an unexpected plunge. However, all is not lost…two tiny pieces survived what sounds like a very stressful bake. Believe me Gary – we have all been there!
Gary took on the challenge of Flapjack:
Jack asked if perhaps the recipe for the Apple Crumble and the Flapjack were perhaps mixed up at some point? But truly Gary, I have tried Flapjack recipes that did not seem to bind very well and ended up too crumbly eat with your hands. Crumbly flapjack mixture is still great with ice-cream!
We think that the two tiny slices that survived are everything flapjack should be…but of course there is not enough. So Gary, Jack’s advice with regard to flapjack making is “Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough”!!! You know…I do think Jack is getting the hang of matching music to bakes – don’t you!!

Hi Mel, Hi Gary, I shall have to go and consider Gary’s recipe as that picture doesn’t look anything like South African flapjacks. Strangely, some simple sounding foods are quite difficult to make, like on letters and pancakes.

Flapjack is misleading – it looks easy to make, but then it turns into granola instead of being something you can eat without a spoon.
