I have been baking these flapjacks for a few years now and each time I do them I alter the recipe and change up the ingredients, this is the most versatile flapjack recipe you will ever come across as you can literally add anything you want to them and they will taste amazing.
With few ingredients to start off with this recipe has always been a favourite of mine, as I usually have all the things needed in the kitchen cupboards and can whip up a batch whenever I feel like it.
Basic Ingredients:
4 cups oats
1 can condensed milk
2 cups dried fruit
3/4 jar peanut butter
(optional extras)
Mixed nuts
Dried banana chips
Ground almonds
Yogurt coating
Vanilla essence
Dried mango
Almond butter
... or anything else that takes your fancy
Method:
STEP 1:
Mix oats with dried fruit and stir until mixed well
STEP 2:
Mix in the can of condensed milk and stir until oats and fruit are all coated. (mix should be quite difficult to stir)
STEP 3:
Melt the peanut butter in the microwave for 20 seconds and add to mix
STEP 4:
Stir everything together and transfer to a lined baking sheet and flatten
STEP 5:
Bake for 15-20 mins
STEP 6:
Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
HAPPY BAKING,
Rachel Ward
