Fruit & Nut Flapjacks (Granola Bars)

I subscribe to a monthly snack box called Graze. Almost every month one of the six snacks that arrive in my box is called the a flapjack, which is like a chewy granola bar. They are so simply delicious that I decided to try and make them myself. This recipe is low cal as it includes no butter and very little sugar.




                                        the inspiration...


Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats
1 tbsp of melted coconut oil
1/4 cup crushed walnuts
1 whole egg
1 egg white
1 banana mashed
1/4 cup chia seeds
1/4 cup dried cranberries (or any dried fruit of your choice)
1/4 cup of honey (or brown sugar)
pinch of salt
Cinnamon
Orange zest


Directions: 
Mix all the above ingredients well in a mixing bowl
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Spray Non stick spray on square baking dish
Spread mix evenly in dish
Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown on top
Let cool for 20 minutes before cutting
Enjoy!

The result!

These were truly so easy and came out really delicious! I am confident that no store-brought granola bars are in my future
