Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. Melt the spread in a large pan over a low heat. Brush a little of the melted spread over the base and sides of a 30cm x 20cm swiss roll tin, then line the base with baking paper.

2

Stir the golden syrup into the melted spread, then add the oats, eggs, carrots, sultanas, orange zest and mixed spice. Stir well until everything is combined.

3

Put the mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the surface with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes until firm and golden. Cool in the tin for 30 minutes, then remove from the tray to cool completely.

4

To make the cream cheese glaze, whisk the cheese in a small bowl until fluffy, then whisk in the icing sugar and vanilla extract. Stir in the milk, until the mixture reaches a drizzling consistency, then drizzle it over the flapjacks before cutting into 20 bars.
