Flapjacks
The oats in Flapjacks are a slow release energy food and so they’ll keep kids going on busy days. But they also contain quite a lot of sugar and so should be eaten in moderation and as a treat. Flapjacks are an ideal snack food and also great for the little one’s lunchboxes as a treat on school days. This is a very popular recipe and the Flapjacks are delicious and incredibly moreish so be warned! They are also really easy to make and you and the kids can have great fun in the kitchen cooking these.
