Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180 °C/160 °C with convection/gas 4 and line a 20 × 30 cm pan with parchment. Melt the butter, sugar and syrup in a large saucepan over medium heat. After melting, add the oats, stirring well to coat them.

   Pour three quarters of the mixture into the pan and sprinkle the cherries on top. Mix the remaining oat mixture with the coconut flakes and spread it over the cherries, ensuring some flakes protrude. Bake for 30 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool before cutting into 12 flapjacks.
