Yields9 ServingsCategoryBreakfast
225 g oats
3 medium ripe bananas
200 ml semi-skimmed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1
Preheat the oven to 180C and line a square baking tray with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, mix all of the ingredients together until well combined.
You want the mixture to not be too dry, but also should hold together.
3
Pour the mixture out onto the baking tray and press it down firmly with a spatula, until the whole tray is evenly covered.
4
Bake for 30 minutes until the edges are crispy and the mixture has set.
Remove from the oven, leaving the flapjacks in the tray to cool.
Make sure they are completely cooled before trying to cut into them, as they may crumble apart.
5
I cut it into 9 large flapjacks and eat them for breakfast, but they could be cut smaller to save on calories.
