Flapjacks are one of my favourite foods to snack on when I am training. They can be quite filling and sit well in my stomach if I have one on a pit stop during a long ride. Hale Naturals has a versatile product, Powdered Peanut Butter®, that I like to have on hand as a way to make any food into one for recovery. I add it to everything- porridge, protein shakes, ice cream, and now have tried baking with it too.
Here is a fab recipe for an American-inspired treat.
Powdered Peanut Butter® and jelly flapjacks
2 cups oats
1 cup PPB
150g melted butter
100 ml honey or golden syrup
200g dried strawberries (can be chopped into pieces if they seem big)
100g chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
2. Spray 9″x13″ pan with cooking spray or wipe with butter. Line with parchment paper.
3. Mix everything together in a bowl by hand.
4. Spread batter in pan and press flat into corners.
5. Bake for 25-30 min until golden brown.
6. Let cool before cutting.
7. Try not to eat all at once.

2 cups oats
2 sachets of Linwood Super Food packs
