Servings 10 raisin flapjack bars
Ingredients
- 150 grams rolled oats
- 25 grams sunflower seeds
- 70 mls coconut oil melted
- 4 dates
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 75 grams raisins
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Line a medium rectangular baking dish with baking paper.
- Soak 4 dates in a bowl of boiling water for 5-10 minutes. Then remove the dates and take out the stones.
- In a blender add the soaked dates, the coconut oil and maple syrup. Blend them together.
- Mix the oats, sunflower seeds and raisins in a bowl. (If you’re making this for very young children you might want to blend the sunflower seeds slightly so they are less sharp before adding them in).
- Add the blended dates, oil and maple syrup to the bowl of oats, sunflower seeds and raisins, and mix everything until well combined.
- Lay the mixture out on your baking dish and push it down with your fingers until it is tightly packed at a thickness of about 1.5 cm.
- Cook for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden.
- Remove and let cool. Then cut into bars. Enjoy!
