Now that we are spending a lot of time at our 'home office' it is very tempting for us to nip into the kitchen and nibble on anything we can find. Okay, 9.9/10 times it's Anna, but who's counting! With that in mind, for this week's Cooking Tuesday we set ourselves the task of finding a delicious yet healthy snack recipe.
With two 'on the turn' bananas sat in our fruit bowl, we were even more excited to find a recipe that would get the last bit of life out of them too. This Tuesday we cooked:
BANANA FLAPJACKS
Flapjacks always seem a great snack choice from the supermarket but the ready made ones are actually packed full of sugar. We were slightly dubious when we stumbled across a recipe without any added sugar or butter, could they still taste any good?! We just had to try it to find out.
First of all they are so easy to make, why have we never made these before?! To give our flapjacks an extra boost we also added some pumpkins seeds and dried cranberries we had in the cupboard. They were utterly delicious and have definitely helped tone down the daytime 'grasing' in the kitchen. The oats do a great job of filling you up, while the bananas and cranberries satisfy the sweet tooth. Our cupboard shall never be without them again!
They also went down a storm on our trip to the beach and Jacqui even nicknamed them the 'pebble cake' after noticing their similarity to the ground underfoot...
As always, happy cooking!
