Flapjack recipe that’s a bit healthy

Does anyone have a good flapjack recipe that’s at least vaguely healthy-ish please?

So not huge amounts of sugar and able to be nut-free as it’s an idea for a school lunch. Also not keen on the recipes that just use banana only for sweetness and to bind the ingredients as we find them stodgy.

I hate banana, yuck, but my mother used to make flap jacks with just half the amount of sugar and they still tasted nice to me.

They still had sugar in them I wasn't deluding myself when I had three or four of them Grin

I use a GCN flapjack recipe that uses half the amounts of brown sugar and less butter, uses Algrave syrup instead, lots of dried fruit esp cranberries and apricot, i add crushed almonds which you can miss out on.

They are quite chewy if cooked correct.

1 tin of condensed milk
250g rolled oats
75g shredded coconut
100g dried cranberries
125g mixed seeds (I use pumpkin, sunflower, sometimes add flax, chia, sesame)
125g nuts (original recipe says peanuts but I do walnuts and almonds)

Warm the milk and mix with all the dry ingredients. Put in tin and cook at 110c fan for 1 hour.

It’s a Nigella recipe and so yummy!
