            Flapjacks 

            Instructions for three flapjacks (Each box makes 15 flapjacks approximately 8cm diameter):

            • Mix ⅓ of a cup (90ml / 50g) of flapjack mix with 90ml of cold water or nut milk. Nut milk makes fluffier richer flapjacks. Ratio is 1 part mix  to 1 part liquid.
              – Heat a non-stick pan to medium heat. Add oil. Coconut oil is great.
              – Add batter to the pan to make a few flapjacks at a time.
              – Cook for approximately 90 seconds. Watch for bubbles. Then flip.
              Cook for approximately one more minute.

            TIPS

            • If the batter is not thick enough, add a bit more powder, if it is too thick add a little water.
            • Turn down the heat if the edges are browning too fast.
            • Add syrup or chocolate chips to the batter for a more decadent experience.
            • Make smaller flapjacks for easier flipping.
