Flap jack recipe

Recently I have been making flap jacks for our guests staying here at our Staffordshire Bed and Breakfast. They are a quick and simple bake, suitable for vegans and involve only a few ingredients.
A guest this week described them as “too morish!” and I have had lots of positive feedback on them. I have to admit my main problem is hiding them from Andy so the guests can get a look in! They are definitely my favourite bake at the moment and I love the delicious smell they create in my kitchen here in Eccleshall.
I also serve them at Andy’s Chess club and at our Eccleshall Cancer Warrior’s meetings, that we host here at Eagle House. Trust me when I say that this recipe is a must-try for beginners, and these flap jacks pair perfectly with a steaming cup of your favorite hot beverage, anytime, day or night!

- They store well in a lidded container for a week.
