INGREDIENTS

200g porridge oats
300ml water (can use apple or orange juice)
2 tbsp honey
60g dried dates (or any dried fruit)
60g sultanas (or raisins, currants)
30g walnuts (or any nuts)

METHOD

Preheat oven to 180 Celsius

Put the water/juice and honey in a pan and heat gently until it starts to simmer

Add the oats and mix well until completely combined, there should be no liquid left, it should be absorbed.

Take of the heat and mix in the fruit and nuts

Mix well then tip into a greased lined baking tray. Press down the mixture so its all compacted. 

Bake in the oven on middle shelf for approx 40 minutes or until golden brown and has a crispy top

Remove from the oven, cut into squares whilst the flapjack is still warm, but leave in the tray to cool

Once cooled turn out and enjoy the taste and chewiness without feeling guilty

INGREDIENTS  18 dried dates (approx) 2-3 tbsp boiling water 1 cup of porridge oats WHAT YOU WILL NEED 1 sheet of parchment paper Rolling pin Food processor METHOD Slice dates in half, place in a small bowl and add the boiling water, leave for approx 15-20 minutes to soak Preheat oven 170 fan/190c Put porridge oats in a food processor, then add the dates along with the water they were soaking in, and blend until you get a stick consistency, if mixture is too dry just add a little water. Turn out the mixture onto one half of the parchment paper, carefully gather all the mixture up and then fold over the half of the paper to cover the mixture, this will stop the mixture sticking to the rolling pin in the next stage. With the rolling pin, roll out your mixture to about 5mm thick and cut into slices, place carefully onto a lined baking tray, and repeat. Place in oven on middle shelf and bake for approx 15/20 minutes After removing from the oven leave to cool
