    Easy recipe. Did not have enough sunflower seeds so used pumpkin seeds. Very tasty and looked just like the picture

    Finally found a flapjack / granola bar receipe that doesn't end up as a greasy mess! Would probably omit the cinnamon next time as it gives a slightly artificial taste in my view, and maybe add some crystalised ginger instead. Overall I was very pleased with these, and my two year old loves the "seedy bars" ! (ahem!)

    These are great I make them every weekend and my husband and I have them to take to work for breakfast. Other people in the office love them too and have asked for the recipe. I too have changed the nuts and the fruit used to whatever I have and have found they are very adaptable, and always taste good. I cook mine in a silicone tray which means no extra butter is needed for greasing.

    These are delicious but I don't know why my bars always fall apart? So used them as a crumble mix with custard, thats delicious too.

    Oh wow, I'm really impressed with these! They are going to be my staple breakfast now, it's easy to grab one and run out the door. I also mixed up the nuts & seeds combo and used what I had - up to 200g worth of seeds and nuts to match the 200g of oats.
