Flapjacks are my absolute favourite and they are something I thought I would miss when I adopted a vegan diet. However I have been pleasantly surprised that these are just as tasty made without real butter - in fact I don't think that you could really tell that they are vegan!
These fruity vegan flapjacks are soft and chewy and full of goodness from the seeds and dried fruit and bananas so you don't need to feel so guilty that these are bad for you - there is a bit of goodness in there too!
I tend to eat a fair few flapjacks when I am breastfeeding as oats are supposed to be good for milk production. So I find that a bowl of porridge for breakfast and one of these for a snack during the day and I would have a great milk supply. It's this reason why I always make a batch of these for friends who have just had a new baby too. They are really portable so I love popping a few in a tupperware box to give to friends or even to take out and about with me, and then I have a healthy, sustaining snack on me for the day.

Variations and Substitutions
