1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat griddle so that a drop of water beads when dropped on it.

Categories     Cookies     Nut     Dessert     Bake     Oat     Hazelnut     Bon Appétit     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes about 25

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup chopped toasted hazelnuts (about 2 ounces)
1/4 cup shelled sunflower seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 9-inch square baking pan with foil, leaving 2-inch overhang. Melt butter, sugar and syrup in heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Mix in oats, nuts and sunflower seeds. Transfer mixture to prepared pan. Press down firmly to form even layer. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool. Using foil sides as aid, lift cookie out of pan. Carefully cut into squares. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)

Tips:

  • Prepare your ingredients and equipment: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment. This includes measuring cups and spoons, a mixing bowl, a whisk, a spatula, and a griddle or frying pan.
  • Use good quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will affect the taste of your flapjacks. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your flapjacks tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook the flapjacks over medium heat: Cooking the flapjacks over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Flip the flapjacks only once: When cooking flapjacks, only flip them once. Flipping them too often will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the flapjacks warm: Flapjacks are best served warm. You can serve them with butter, syrup, or fruit.
