Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bananas
- 200 grams Rolled oats
- 60 grams Honey
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the honey and brown sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well combined. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Pour the melted butter mixture into the mashed bananas. Add the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Gradually add the rolled oats to the banana mixture, mixing until all the oats are evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly and pressing it down firmly with the back of a spatula or the bottom of a glass.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let the flapjacks cool completely in the pan before slicing into 8 equal pieces.
Serve as-is or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. They can also be frozen for later enjoyment.
