Method
- Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Grease and line a 20cm square tin with nonstick baking paper. Put the apples, cinnamon, raisins and honey into a small saucepan with a splash of water and cook with the lid on over a medium heat for 10 mins, stirring regularly, then remove the lid and cook for another 5 mins until just soft and the liquid has evaporated; set aside to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, put the butter and honey into a medium saucepan set over a low heat and warm until just melted together. Stir in the oats, cinnamon, most of the nuts and the egg. Stir in the apple mixture, then gently pack it into the prepared baking tin. Sprinkle the remaining nuts over the top and bake in the oven for 16-18 mins until lightly golden. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.
