The ingredients:

For The Base:

• 100 g butter
• 60 g (⅓ cup) brown sugar

For the base: 

1. Preheat oven to 170 Degrees Celsius (fan-forced) and grease and line a 20cm square baking tin with baking paper, ensuring the paper over hangs the baking tray to make it easy to remove. Set aside until needed.

3. Using the back of a spoon, press the base mixture firmly into the prepared baking tin.
4. Bake for 12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.

For the almond top:

1. Melt the butter and Wild Nectar Honey over medium heat, stirring to combine.
2. Stir the flaked almonds through the melted mixture and spread the warm topping evenly over the base.
3. Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly golden.
4. Use the baking paper to remove from the tin and leave to cool on a wire rack before slicing.
