1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and line a roasting tin/8x8 brownie pan(s) or a disposable roasting tray. This mixture makes a lot!
2
Put flour, oatmeal and spices in a bowl, whisk lightly to combine.
3
Melt fat, sugar and molasses together in a pan. Don't let it boil.
4
Remove this from the heat, and pour it into the dry ingredients along with the beaten eggs and mix well. Don't overmix but make sure it's combined.
5
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.
6
Cool in tin on wire rack. Now this is IMPORTANT! It will feel overbaked and hard as it cools. But this is the key - you have to store the Parkin a week at least before cutting. Trust me, it softens and mellows, becoming squidgy and deeper in flavour. It's perfect for fall as it has all the right warming flavours.
