Carrot Cake Flapjacks

Carrot cake is my absolute number one favourite cake, so imagine my excitement at the thought of putting it in a flapjack and creating these divine carrot cake flapjacks. And even better, they’re healthy!

Seriously, they contain carrot and sultanas so that’s two of your five a day right there, but more importantly they contain no refined sugar and the protein content from the nuts and porridge oats means these tasty bars will have you powering through until home time. ENJOY!

What’s In Carrot Cake Flapjacks?

  • 400g Porridge Oats
  • 200g Unsalted Butter
  • 200g Honey
  • 200g Sultanas
  • 100g Pecans
  • 2 Carrots
  • 1 Tsp Mixed Spice

How Do I Make It Carrot Cake Flapjacks?

Grate both carrots and then place in a saucepan with the butter, sultanas and honey. Heat over a moderate hob until everything has melted and formed a gorgeously sticky syrup. Remove from the heat and stir in the oats, pecans and mixed spice.

Pour the mixture into a shallow baking tin and spread to the edges until smooth. Place in a moderate oven for approximately 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and with a sharp knife carefully cut your flapjacks, making sure to leave them in the tin until they have completely cooled. When cool, go over the lines and then remove with a palette knife.

Top Tip – If you love your flapjacks chunky then you could try adding some pineapple chunks, which will also sweeten them up a bit. Or why not experiment with different dried fruit and nuts.
