Sugar Free Flapjacks
Description
This recipe produces flapjacks by blending peeled apple, egg white, and a granulated sweetener with flax meal, pumpkin seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, and cinnamon in a food processor until mostly smooth but still with texture from nuts and seeds. The batter is spread into a compact rectangle and baked at 320°F until golden brown. The result is flapjacks with a gentle sweetness free from added sugar and a moist yet firm bite.
The flapjacks' texture balances chewiness from the apple and egg with crunch from toasted seeds and nuts. Cinnamon adds a warm, earthy spice note without overpowering the natural flavors. These bars are good for low-carb or sugar-free diets and are portioned easily.
They store well on the counter for several days or chilled for a week, and freeze well for longer keeping. To prevent crumbling, pre-cutting before baking is recommended. Adjust baking time to preference for chewy or crunchier texture.
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup apple peeled, cored and chopped (80g). About 1 small apple
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon erythritol or granulated sweetener of choice. Use more if you prefer a sweeter bar, golden
- ⅓ cup flax meal 30g
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds 30g
- ⅓ cup almonds 50g
- ⅓ cup hazelnut 50g
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160 Celsius/320 F.
- Place all ingredients in a food processor or use the attachment of your stick blender. Blend until it's mostly smooth with a few larger pieces of nuts and seeds. You may need to scrape the sides a couple of times. (Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.)
- Flatten the mix on a baking sheet lined with non-stick parchment paper. My mix measured 5 x 7 inches.
- Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Let cool completely before cutting with a sharp, non-serrated knife.
Notes
- Pre-cut flapjacks before baking to prevent crumbling when slicing.
- Bake 25 minutes for chewy bars or an additional 5-10 minutes for crunchier texture, flipping halfway.
- Store at room temperature up to 3 days or refrigerate up to 1 week; freeze for up to 3 months.
- Apple can be replaced with sugar-free applesauce without altering texture significantly.
- Substitute nuts or seeds with alternatives you have on hand for customization.
