Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Rolled oats
- 60 grams Honey
- 50 grams Unsweetened applesauce
- 30 grams Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 50 grams Chopped dried fruit (such as raisins or apricots)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a 20cm x 20cm (8 inch x 8 inch) baking tin with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey, applesauce, and brown sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the saucepan from the heat, add the vanilla extract, and stir the mixture well.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Stir until all the oats are coated and the mixture is well combined.
Fold in the chopped dried fruit to evenly distribute throughout the oat mixture.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared baking tin, ensuring the surface is smooth and compact.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the edges are golden and firmly set.
Allow the flapjack slab to cool completely in the tin. Once cool, remove from the tin using the parchment paper and cut into 12 mini flapjacks.
Enjoy your low fat mini flapjacks as a snack or breakfast treat, and store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
