Things have been rough in work recently and we all can't wait for half term, bring on Thursday. To help cheer everyone up I've had a bit of a baking marathon today. First to be made was a batch of vegan flapjacks. One of my workmates is vegan and I didn't want her to feel left out.
I have to admit I feel confident with vegetarian cooking, but not vegan. I'm always worried about putting in an ingredient that isn't vegan. A few months back I nearly made a huge booboo when in a fleeting moment I thought of putting honey in a vegan dish, luckily I clicked before putting it in! I decided vegan flapjacks was the fail safe option. Of course if you wanted to make an non-vegan version just replace the soya spread with butter.
I've entered these flapjacks into Mansi's Weekend Breakfast Blogging event.

Those look good. The only time I ever tried to bake something for my vegan colleague (also because I didn't want her to be left out when I made Xmas bicuits for everyone else), the biscuits turned out like rubber. ;-) It's the thought that counts, right?!
ReplyDeleteSylvie - It certainly is the thought that counts! I'm not brave enough to try vegan biscuits/cakes so decided flapjacks were foolproof. They went down really well with the vegan and the non-vegans.
ReplyDeleteThese look delicious. There is nothing quite like a good flapjack.
ReplyDeleteI would never have remembered not to include honey in vegan cookery - good thing you are more on the ball!
hey Jules, these are really easy and healthy! I'm hosting WBB-Balanced Breakfasts event on my blog and these so fit the bill!! I'd be glad if you could send them in for the event (details on my blog)!:)
