Cinnamon, Apple & Carrot Flapjacks!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Grated carrot
- 1 cup Grated apple
- 2 cups Oat
- 1 handful Almonds (blitz to smaller pieces in a food chopper) I soaked them over night in water and a bit of sea salt as makes them more digestible
- 2 tbsp Almond butter
- 1 tbsp Linseeds
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tbsp Stevia
- 1 tbsp Date molasses You can use any other sweetener such honey, maple or agave syrup
- 1 tsp Organic olive oil I think this helps to keep moist but have done without and was fine. Obviously you don't have go use organic olive oil.
- 1 handful sultanas, raisins, mixed fruit or equivalent (dates work)
- 1 tbsp Pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to sprinkle over the top
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients in a bowl (save for the seeds for the top). Spread onto a tray lined with greaseproof paper. Sprinkle on your choice of seed toppings. Bake in the oven at Gas 160 for 20/25 or so minutes (keep an eye on them as you don’t want the fruit to burn).
- Put on a air tray to cool. Cut into bars and enjoy!
