4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
5. Transfer the flapjack mixture to a greased baking dish or lined baking tray, pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon or spatula to create an even layer.
6. Place the baking dish or tray in the preheated wood-fired oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the flapjack is golden brown and set around the edges.
7. Remove the flapjack from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing into bars or squares.
