Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C Fan /200°/gas mark 6 and grease a baking tray (line with baking paper for extra security). Top tip: we recommend using a swiss roll tin or something similar.

2. Add the oats, chopped fruit, coconut, lemon juice, zest and grated apple into a food processor or blender. Pulse until the ingredients are well mixed and broken down into your ideal texture.
3. In a saucepan, add the honey, syrup and butter (or oil), and heat over a gentle flame until melted.
4. Transfer the dry mixture into the saucepan and stir well, making sure it’s completely coated in the syrup.
5. Pour your healthy flapjack mixture into the greased tin and press it in to form an even surface. Top tip: Press down hard to make sure your flapjacks hold together.

6. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until your flapjacks turn golden brown.
7. While your bake is still hot, use a knife to cut it into 12 equal pieces. Fancy a smaller snack? Cut your flapjacks into fingers – perfect for dunking into your afternoon tea. Once you’ve cut them into shape, leave them in the tin to cool.
