Do you guys use grams or cups to measure baking ingredients?
I've always used cups. It's just so much easier to gage -- especially when you don't have an actual measuring cup. Then again, if I just remember that 1 cup = 150 grams, I suppose 150g would be easy to gage too.
I ask because I think I have a lot of readers from the U.K.
So should I use British measurements in my blog posts??
Or does it not really matter???
I mean, let's be honest, who really makes the recipes they read on blogs? Wait I take it back, I just realised that question could ruin my whole blog potential.
Okay so with that said, I have a recipe post today!
My family is moving to their new house this weekend so for the past 2 weeks we've been trying to use all the food in the cupboards. I think anyone who has ever moved house will know the struggle of trying to make a meal out of oats, jam and dried pasta.
We had 3 full boxes of oats (don't know why) and so I made flapjacks -- which is probably the easiest thing to do with oats, apart from make porridge.
Ingredients
1/2 cup coconut oil (instead of butter)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 cups oats
Method
1. Melt together the coconut oil, maple syrup and sugar over a low heat. I think this is pretty much caramel -- or at least it could be?
2. Stir in the oats and then put the whole mixture in a pan and bake for 15-20 minutes at 190C.
3. That's it, really.
Girly. This looks amazing.
