15 Minute Fruity Flapjack
Description
Due to me having a back injury, my eight year old son has taken on a large part of the cooking in our household. Together we're creating new recipes that he is able to do fairly quickly. We wanted to create an easy plant-based flapjack recipe that didn't require any special equipment.
Ingredients
- 1 mug oats
- Equivalent to 1 large pureed cooked eating apple - approx 150-200g (two baby fruit pots would work well - we're going to try apple and plum flavour next time)
- 1 generous tablespoon nut butter
- 1 tbsp jam (optional - we used elderberry)
Directions
- If you are cooking an apple, core it and place in a dish in a moderate oven for about 25 minutes until it's soft and then use a stick blender to mush it up - we removed the skin as it had burnt in places
- (Alternatively, tip contents of fruit pots into a bowl)
- Mix in the nut butter (and jam, if you're including it)
- Mix in the oats thoroughly
- Press into a baking dish and bake (Gas mark 4) for about 10 minutes
- Allow to cool before cutting into pieces
