Another delicious no refined or processed-sugar snack. Packed full with vitamins and minerals such as calcium and iron from the oats and natural antioxidants from the honey.
Most flapjacks are crammed full of refined sugars and although there is still a lot of butter in this recipe as long as you treat them as a treat it's fine to indulge.
No Refined Sugar Flapjacks
Makes approx 10-15 squares
Ingredients
250g runny honey
220g rolled oats
30g desiccated coconut
150g butter (if you like you can use half coconut oil and butter)
a good pinch of salt
Method
Preheat the oven 180 degrees.
Line a baking tray or cake tin approx 20 x 20cm with silicone/non-stick greaseproof paper.
Simply place the butter and honey into a saucepan and heat until the butter has dissolved and it's all come together.
Then add your decicated coconut, oats and good pinch of salt.
Pour into your prepared tin and cook for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. You don't want to overcook as it will end up dry and crumbly. I usually slightly undercook mine so it's a bit gooey. However, do make sure its totally cool before cutting.
