The ''I don't have time to have breakfast'' Vegan Flapjacks

Time for school!!


My daughter Esme had her first day at school last week, she is such a grown up girl! I figured there would be many days we would be in a rush and wouldn't have time for breakfast, sometimes so much of a rush that we have to grab something on the way to school, so I threw a load of ingredients together, and made a flapjack of sorts. This is Gluten Free too, so tummy friendly :)


The ''I don't have time to have breakfast'' Vegan Flapjacks


The question is, what are the measurements for the ingredients? The answer to this is, I haven't the foggiest! I would really just add until you get the right consistency. Right now I have an 11 week old baby so I don't get a lot of time so make food, so a recipe throwing everything in a bowl is ideal really!!
This is a mysterious recipe, like that on the great british bake off *rotfl*

Ingredients:

Cup of dates, soaked 
Cup of Cashews, soaked
Slug of maple syrup (no not a real slug ^_^)
Tablespoon of melted non-dairy marg
Quinoa Flakes

*Whizz up the dates and cashews in a food processor or nutribullet
*De-cant into a bowl, add the Quinoa flakes and mix until they are all combined.
*Melt the non-dairy marg in a pan, add the maple syrup
*Pour into the mixture and stir
*Line a tin with baking parchment, press down mixture into the tin, then throwww in the oven!
*Bake for 15-20 mins, take the flapjacks out and cut into squares.
*Cool the flapjacks and put them in a tub, ready to eat!!

I plan on making these again soon with a carob style chocolate on top (chocolate makes my daughter rather loopy!) They are nutty and delicious!
