High Protein Vegan Flapjack Recipe

Origins Of The Flapjack

Flapjacks, those delightful bars of chewy goodness, have a history as rich and different as the flavours they offer. While the term ‘flapjack’ is widely recognized in the UK, the concept has roots in various countries. Oat-based flat cakes have historical ties to Scotland, where they were called “oatcakes.” In the United States, pioneers and settlers enjoyed variations of flapjacks made with oats, syrup, and sometimes nuts. However, the non-vegan flapjack, as we commonly know it today, with its sticky sweetness, finds its true origins in England.

Are Flapjacks Vegan?

The traditional non-vegan flapjack recipe often contains butter and honey, making them not very vegan-friendly. However, the beauty of this recipe lies in its cruelty-free twist, giving an animal-friendly alternative without compromising on taste. The vegan flapjack is not only compassionate but also a delightful surprise for your taste buds.
