Looking for a tasty, low-sugar snack to satisfy your sweet cravings? You need to try our Fruit and Nut Flapjacks.

If you’re prone to reaching for chocolate and biscuits to beat the afternoon slump, these chewy and gooey fruit and nut flapjacks make for a more nutritious sweet treat.

Each bar is baked with oats and almonds to provide you with a boost of healthy carbs and fats, and then topped with dried cranberries for a super sweet kick.
