Best protein flapjack recipe
Ingredients
Method
Step 1
Line a large baking tray with baking paper
Step 2
Mix the oats and whey powder in a large bowl
Step 3
Add peanut butter, half the milk and mix
Step 4
Add the honey and chocolate covered raisins. Stir until fully mixed in
Top tip: If the flapjack mix seems dry, add the rest of the milk, little by little, until you are able to push down on the mix, so it just holds together. You do not want it to be too wet.
Step 5
Spread the flapjack mix evenly across the paper and press it down into the tray. We like our flapjacks to be around 2cm thick, but you may prefer them thicker or flatter!
Step 6
Place in the fridge for 1 hour, this helps the mixture to hold together better.
Top tip: If you're pushed for time or happy for your flapjack to be a little crumbly, feel free to skip this step.
Step 7
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°C for 15 minutes
Step 8
Remove from oven, slice into squares and leave to cool in the tray
So let’s take a closer look at some of the ingredients
- If it's protein you're after, try adding some nuts and seeds to your mix, for higher protein flapjacks.
- Dried or fresh fruits can also add extra nutrients, flavour and texture, and you can experiment with different milks too.
- To make chocolate protein flapjacks, use the dark chocolate within the flapjack in this recipe, or drizzle it on top for a more decadent-looking flapjack. Or you can omit the chocolate all together if you're not a fan.
- As far as protein powders go, you can also experiment with different flavours and go even more chocolatey, or keep it simple with an unflavoured whey protein powder.
- We really like adding extra seeds to these flapjack bars. Flaxseeds give them a fabulous boost, and we love how sunflower seeds look scattered over the top too.
- Adding a handful of blueberries can completely transform this protein flapjack mix, interspersing the rich protein with refreshing fruity bites.
