We’re kicking off the first of our festive flapjacks with this gorgeous Gingerbread Latte recipe. The inspiration for these comes from the high street coffee chains who offer many a Christmas themed hot drink in the run up to the big day. They’re sweet, comforting and with just enough of a ginger kick to warm you up on those cold, frosty mornings. We’ve used Beanies Gingerbread Flavour Coffee to create a subtle latte taste, but you could use any type of coffee you like.
What’s In It?
- 500g Porridge Oats
- 200g Unsalted Butter
- 200ml Honey
- 2 tbsps Ginger Flavoured Instant Coffee
- 4 Stem Ginger balls
- Crystallised Stem Ginger to decorate
How Do I Make It?
Chop the stem ginger balls into smallish pieces and place in a saucepan with the honey, butter and coffee granules. Heat on the hob until everything has melted and the mixture has turned a caramel brown colour.
Remove from the heat and stir in the porridge oats, making sure they are completely covered in the syrup.
Pour into a greased shallow baking tin and cook in a preheated moderate oven for approximately 20-25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and using a sharp knife mark out the lines of your flapjacks.
When cooled, score over the lines and remove from the tin.
Decorate with crystallised stem ginger and enjoy with a steaming cup of your favourite coffee!
