Flapjacks, as we know them today—a sweet, baked oat bar—did not exist in Elizabethan times. However, the era did have various oat-based dishes, including porridge and oat cakes, which were common staples. The concept of mixing oats with honey or other sweeteners likely existed in some form, but the modern flapjack is a more recent invention.
