Easy Vegan Flapjacks - No Butter
These vegan flapjacks are a dairy free twist on a classic British dessert. Crunchy on the top and sweet and chewy on the inside, they're perfect with a cup of coffee or tea. They can be made with under 15 minutes hands-on time and they're naturally gluten free.
Ingredients
- 2½ cups rolled oats
- ½ cup coconut oil
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons golden syrup
- ½ cup dried fruit
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180° C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang to create "handles" to pull the flapjacks out of the pan.
- In a small saucepan heat the coconut oil, sugar and golden syrup over low heat. Keep stirring until the mixture resembles a thick caramel sauce.
- Tip the oats and dried fruit into a large mixing bowl and pour the caramel mixture over the top. Stir until everything is well combined.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan and pack it down with the back of spoon. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the flapjacks to cool in the pan for 30 minutes before removing them and cutting them into squares.
Notes
- Flapjacks are made with oats, which are almost always gluten free, but if you are sensitive to gluten, be sure to choose a brand that is specifically marked gluten free.
