4 oz salted Butter
1/4 to 1/3 cup of Demerra (golden) sugar. (You can add more if you like them sweeter)
2 tablespoons of Agave syrup or Golden Syrup
1 3/4 cup of Quaker quick oats: not instant or old fashioned. I tried the old fashioned and it was a disaster!
1/4 cup of chopped pecans or anything else you fancy, raisins, choc chips, walnuts, etc.
Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
In a small saucepan over a low heat, mix butter, sugar and syrup until it melts. Stir in oats and nuts. Transfer mixture to well greased 9-inch Pyrex pie plate, or a 6-inch brownie pan.
Put in oven and cook for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven, cut into squares and let cool.
Try not to eat entire batch at once.
