Healthy Vegan Chocolate Flapjack Recipe!

Hello lovelies,

Well guys, after a month of extremely indulgent bakes, you’ll be pleased to hear I’m back today with the healthier bakes.

I’m so excited to share with you the ‘healthier’ bakes that I’ve got planned. I’ve spent hours scrolling through the internet finding different recipes to share with you guys. You’ll find a lot of recipes that are coming up are inspired by slimmers world, pinch of nom and weight watchers.

To kick start these bakes, I wanted to share with you this Vegan Chocolate Flapjack. It’s funny, you’d think with it having chocolate on that it would be deemed as unhealthy but it actually isn’t.

Flapjacks are very nostalgic, I remember always having them as a kid. I’ll be honest, some flapjacks are much tastier than others which is why I wanted to make my own today. I wanted to make a flapjack that was super yummy and something everyone would enjoy.

So here it is, the flapjack recipe:
