Why no "wotsit" so that we can print off recipes?

Delicious, a lovely tasty sweet treat when on a diet. I sometimes crave something sweet, especially in the evenings, these flapjacks fit the bill for me.

These are only gluten free if you buy gluten free oats - normal oats are not gluten free.

Yummy. My 2yr old likes them too hurrah! Easy to make and hold together well. Nice chewy texture. I can see endless variations in ingredients you could use. Looking forward to trying them again with dates instead of figs and some different nuts. Might add some melted dark choc on top next time too!

Very nice! All members of my family love this recipe. I did however replace the figs with dates and added some seeds - truly scrumptious! And very easy - you don't need a food processor if you use dates, as they come out very soft after cooking.
