Rosemary Orange and Oat Slice

I recently made an oat based granola with orange that was so lovely I decided to make a slice featuring these 2 ingredients along with an extra flavour inclusion to make it extra special and different. After doing some research in what unique flavor profiles I could pair orange and oats with I ended up deciding on rosemary for something different.

This slice is a simple, easy and a really delicious treat that will surprise people how tasty the flavors are together.

Ingredients:

Slice:

150g self-raising flour
115g sugar
120g oats
3 tsn dried rosemary
3 tsn orange zest
120g butter
1 + ½ tbsn golden syrup
1 egg

Icing:

150g icing sugar
75g butter
½ tsn rosemary
½ tsn orange zest
15ml orange juice

Method:

Pre-heat the oven to 180c degrees and line a 20 x 20cm cake tin with baking paper.
Place the flour, sugar, oats, rosemary and zest into a bowl and mix until combine.
Place the butter and golden syrup into a bowl and microwave until melted, stir.
Add the butter mix and stir into the flour mix until combine.
Beat the egg in a bowl with a hand whisk and stir into the flour mix.
Spoon the mix into the tin and flatten down with the back of a spoon.
Place in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden.
Leave in the tin for 5 minutes then turn onto a cooling tray until cold.
Meanwhile to make the icing, place all ingredients into a bowl and using electric beats whisk until light and fluffy.
Spoon the icing over the top of the slice and using a knife flatten the top.
Place the slice in the fridge for 30 minutes to set the icing, then cut and serve.
