Melt the butter and honey together and mix into the oats with the dates, nuts and vanilla. Spread onto the tray and bake for about 20 minutes, turning over a couple of times, or until golden. Cool. 
You’ll have more than you need for the recipe but it will keep for a couple of weeks in an airtight container and is good with fruit, yoghurt or icecream.  To assemble -  100g madeira sponge

Elderflower sprigs  Cut the sponge into small dice and divide among 4 glasses.
Drizzle the cordial or liqueur over the sponge. Spoon half the raspberry mousse into the bowls and top with the remaining puree. Add the remaining mousse and sprinkle over some of the crunchy oats. Garnish with the raspberries and elderflower sprigs.
