Has anyone got a recipe they have used to make Flapjacks and actualy managed to get them out of the tin in slices ,every time I try to make them they are just so crumbly they all fall apart ,I leave them to get cold in the tin before trying to get them out ,don't understand where I going wrong with the blooming things.

Hi, I cut my tray of Flapjacks into slices or squares before they go stone cold & remove from tin whilst there is still a bit of warmth / softness to them.

This Is My recipe....
8oz of marg
6oz of Demerara Sugar
2 large TBLSP of Golden Syrup
12 oz of Porridge Oats.

Melt marg, sugar & syrup together in a pan,when well mixed / melted stir in the P Oats.
Line a swiss roll tin with Gr proof paper & press mixture into tin, bake for 20-25 mins at 180c fan oven.
Leave to cool ( not cold) then cut into shapes, then cool more on cake rack,

I use a recipe where you can halve the sugar and add syrup instead so aren't so crumbly

I've done that too but they just fall apart ,how long do you cook yours for ,mine còked for 25 minutes in 180 oven .

Hi Milly, I have added the recipe I use to earlier reply.
