Ingredients
Cranberry & Coconut Flapjacks
- 125g cranberries
- 175g chopped dates
- 200ml water
- 60g coconut butter
- 60g butter
- 3 tblsp maple syrup
- 250g porridge oats

Gluten Advice:
Pure oats are naturally gluten free. However, they are often contaminated with wheat. If you are sensitive to gluten it is best to check that the oats you are buying are certified as ‘pure’ or ‘gluten free’.
How to make Cranberry & Coconut Flapjacks
1. Preheat your oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
2. Place the cranberries and dates in a small saucepan with the water and bring to the boil. Simmer gently until the fruit has softened and the water has soaked into the fruit, adding a little more water if you need to.
3. In another pan, melt the coconut butter, butter and maple syrup together over a low heat.
4. Mix the oats, coconut and seeds together in a large bowl, make a well in the middle and pour in the melted syrup and butter mixture. Stir in the softened dried fruit and mix well.
5. Tip the mixture onto a lined baking tray, spread it out evenly and press down firmly with the back of a metal spoon or palette knife.
6. Bake for about 25-35 minutes until golden brown.
7. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares. Once cooled, store in an airtight container.
