A bit more healthy than normal flapjacks recipe

Pour 150g sugar and 200ml milk into a saucepan and heat gently, stirring until the sugar has all melted. Then add 20g coconut oil and 60g peanut butter and keep stirring.

Allow this to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning.

Turn the heat right down and add 40g whey and 50g mixed crushed nuts, stir this in and add 180g oats. Add the oats in slowly as you don’t want too stiff a mixture. If it gets too stiff then either the mixture has cooled too much or you might need to leave some oats out.

Once mixed in, spread onto a non stick tray and bake at about 150 degrees C for about ten minutes.

Remove and let cool for about 10 minutes. You can then flatten the flapjacks with a rolling pin to about half an inch thick and cut into slices about an inch wide by about 6 inches long. If you want you can turn each slice upside down and shape to flatten the edges for a more professional look. I also crush up a small amount of herbs and rock salt to sprinkle over the top before rolling.

The above ingredients make up around 20 x 35g slices.

Each slice contains approximately:
Calories: 117
Protein: 3.1g
Carbs: 14.6g
Fat: 4.8g

These ingredients aren’t and don’t really need to be exact. I usually make these flapjacks by eye and only measured the ingredients for the benefit of this recipe.

They dry quite nicely, though they are still quite chewy and aren't as sticky as normal flapjacks.

Tips: You could add more whey but it tends to make the flavour a bit anaemic, though using a flavoured whey will obviously give the flapjacks some of that flavour.

Adding more peanut butter will add to the flavour as well.

Takes about 30 minutes from starting to eating.

I often substitute almonds or pistachios for the mixed nuts.
