Description

Delicious chia seed and flaxseed flapjack using natural ingredients. Suitable for babies, toddlers and adults alike and packed full of nutritional goodness!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 grams rolled oats
  • 70 grams chia seeds
  • 30 grams ground flaxseed
  • 100ml warm water
  • 70 grams raisins
  • 1 (very ripe!) mashed banana
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 50 grams melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160C
  2. In a bowl add the dry ingredients (rolled oats, ground flaxseed, chia seeds and raisins) and mix to combine.
  3. In a second bowl, mash a very ripe banana with the back of a fork, then add it to the bowl along with the warm water and maple syrup.
  4. Melt butter in the microwave or on the hob (I like to boil water and then pop a bowl on top to gently melt the butter over the course of a few minutes) then add it to the bowl.
  5. Combine all the ingredients thoroughly, you should see everything sticking together nicely.
  6. Grab a square tin and line with baking paper. Pop the flapjack mixture into the tin and press down on it with the back of a spoon making sure it's spread out evenly across the whole tin.
  7. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes (if you prefer a crispier flapjack, an hour may be better).
  8. Leave to cool fully before cutting into 16 equal slices.
