About the bake
Looking for a recipe for flapjacks that is a little lighter? This is the perfect pick me up to avoid those mid-afternoon slumps or the ideal bite to enjoy with a morning coffee. These low sugar mini apple flapjacks are made with Truvia for Baking brown sweetener as an alternative to sugar.
Method
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 190°C (fan 170°C, gas mark 5, 375°F). Grease and line a shallow 20cm square tin with baking paper.
Step 2:
Put the chopped dates in a bowl with the warm apple juice and allow to soak for 5 minutes. Pop the date mixture and Truvia for Baking Brown into a food processor and whizz until smooth.
Step 3:
Next melt the butter in a medium sized saucepan pan over a low heat. Add the date purée and all the remaining ingredients. Stir well, then press gently into the tin with damp hands.
Step 4:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Cut into mini squares in the tin then cool completely before turning out.
Step 5:
For variety add different nuts such as toasted almonds or brazil nuts
