Flapjack

Serves 16

Points per serving: 2

150 ml water, boiling
1 tsp vanilla essence
150 g low-fat spread
150 g oats or oatmeal
75 g light brown sugar
1 tbsp sunflower seeds
1 tbsp sesame seeds
6 tbsp apple juice
225 g dried date(s), (dried) stoned and chopped

Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4/180°C/350°F. Line the base of a 20 cm (8-inch), square, shallow tin with greaseproof paper or baking parchment.

Place the dates in a heatproof bowl and pour on the boiling water. Leave to stand and soften for 15 minutes. Add the vanilla essence and beat to a smooth puree.

Gently melt the spread in a saucepan, or in a bowl in a microwave oven. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Mix well.

Spoon half of the oat mixture in the tin, pressing it down well with the back of a wooden spoon. Spread the date puree over the base and top with the remaining oat mixture.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the surface is golden. Allow the mixture to cool in the tin before cutting into 16 squares. Store in an airtight container
