5. Pour the honey mixture over your dry ingredients and stir well to coat.

6. Spoon the rolled oats mixture onto the prepared tray and spread evenly.

7. Bake for 8 minutes, then stir from the edges in and smooth out again, then pop on the oven for a further 8 minutes, check and stir again.

8. Depending on the size of your tray you might want to stir one more time and cook for a further 5 minutes until all the rolled oats are nice and golden throughout.

9. Remove from the oven and leave on the tray until completely cold
