Preparation time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 30 minutes

Ingredients
FLAPJACKS
250 ml self-raising flour
30 ml castor sugar
1 extra-large egg, whisked
150 ml milk
PECAN NUT BUTTER
75 ml castor sugar
25 ml water
50 g pecan nuts
125 g unsalted butter
TO FINISH
oil
maple syrup for serving

Method:
FLAPJACKS
Mix the flour, castor sugar, egg and milk in a food processor for 20 seconds. Set aside.
PECAN NUT BUTTER
In a heavy-based saucepan, dissolve the castor sugar in the water.
Bring the syrup to the boil and simmer, without stirring, until it turns golden.
Remove from the heat and stir in the pecan nuts.
Turn the mixture out onto a sheet of lightly oiled baking paper.
Leave the mixture to cool and harden and then break into pieces.
Crush the pecan nut brittle with a rolling pin and mix with the butter. Chill until cold.
TO FINISH
Cook the flapjacks by heating a little oil in a non-stick pan and pouring a dessertspoonful of the batter into the pan, allowing it to spread.
Cook until golden brown on both sides and nicely risen.
Serve with the nut butter and maple syrup.
