Go beyond the bowl…

Oats are full of healthy fibre, iron and zinc, plus they provide sustained energy for the day and keep you feeling fuller for longer! This brekky recipe requires a bit of prep, but it’s totally worth it.

There are so many ways you can include oats in your diet, besides the gewone bowl. Like these flapjacks, which serve 4. If you’re gluten-intolerant, use a gluten-free cake flour mix instead of wheat flour, or place one cap of oats in a food processor and blitz to make ‘oat flour’.

What You Need

For the Oat Flapjacks:
1 cup flour
1 cup Jungle Oats
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
