FUEL FOR SUMMER ADVENTURES FLAPJACKS

Wholegrain oats are a great example of a fibre-rich carbohydrate, and are the main ingredient in these delicious flapjacks. The flapjacks are bound together with overripe bananas, dates and cashew butter, ensuring they are not crumbly and have the ultimate chewy texture. They are a great adventure snack option as they provide a steady release of energy and can fit within your pocket.
