140g butter
4 tbsps honey (preferably Scottish heather)
200g whole jumbo porridge oats
100g golden caster sugar
100g hazelnuts, roughly chopped

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/ Gas Mark 4. Melt the butter and honey in a large pan. Add the oats, caster sugar, hazelnuts and flour and stir until thoroughly combined. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until crisp. Once cold, crumble into pieces.
