If you are craving a delicious and nutritious bite, Genna's flapjack recipe makes for a great afternoon or mid-morning pick-me-up. Packed full of fibre and plant protein, this convenient easy-to-make flapjack recipe can leave you feeling satisfied and energised! 

Flapjack ingredients

  • 3 Mugs of Oats (360g)

  • 2 Bananas (200g)
  • 6 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 6 Tablespoons cashew butter (or any nut butter works)
  • 4 Tablespoons coconut oil, plus extra for greasing 

Directions

Step 1

Before mixing the flapjack ingredients, preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C), then place the oats into a mixing bowl.

Step 2

Mash the bananas with a fork and add them to a saucepan with the maple syrup, cashew butter and coconut oil. Allow it to simmer until it forms a liquid.

Step 3

Pour the liquid over the oats and stir well so that they're fully covered.

Step 4

Grease a baking tray with the coconut oil. Transfer the flapjack mix into the baking tray, pressing it down firmly with a spatula so that it's very compact. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top of the flackjacks starts to brown.

Step 5

Once the flapjack is cooked, take the tray out of the oven and leave it to fully cool before slicing the flapjacks up.
