Peanut-butter flapjacks are a tasty and crunchy treat that can be enjoyed any time of day. They are particularly popular as a quick and easy breakfast on the go or as a snack during the day. These flapjacks are easy to make and require only a few simple ingredients. Peanut butter provides a rich and nutty flavor while rolled oats give the flapjacks a satisfying crunch. They are best served warm and pair well with a hot cup of coffee or tea. While they may not be the healthiest option, they are a great alternative to traditional sugary cereals.

Instructions

1.	Preheat your oven to 180°C.
2.	In a large mixing bowl, mix together the softened butter, peanut butter and brown sugar until smooth.
3.	Add the rolled oats to the mixture and mix until well combined.
4.	Take a baking pan and grease it with some cooking spray. Pour your mixture into the pan and press it firmly down to ensure it is level.
5.	Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown.
6.	Take the pan out of the oven and let the flapjacks cool for 10-15 minutes, and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
