Carrot cake flapjacks (dairy free)

Spiced, warming carrot cake flapjacks with no refined sugar & lots of healthy fiber & fats from oats, rye, flaxseeds and fruit/veg. I purposely lowered the amount of fat from oil that standard recipes use but they still came out great with a slightly crisp texture!

I also made these dairy free by using coconut oil instead of butter which works really well with the carrot cake flavours. Perfect for winter time when carrots are so easy to get & the spices are lovely on cold mornings, plus they’re portable too for an on the go healthier snack!

Breakfast oatmeal carrot cake bars

Breakfast carrot cake bars made using natural, nourishing ingredients that will keep you full up til lunchtime. This can also be edited to make them suit whatever tastes you like i.e. more sweet, add fruit of choice etc and are great for portable breakfasts  plus they’ll last you a few mornings.

The recipe can be adapted to meet vegan/gluten free/ sugar free diets as necessary and are a good way of sneaking fruit & veg into people. It’s also optional but I used protein powder instead of standard flour because it balances out the macros a little more meaning they’re a good option post-workout too.
