So sunday morning I woke up with the urge to bake something, I feel like I am turning into a completely different person. My mum thinks I am turning into our Nanny Nina my mums Maltese grandmother that always used to be baking something.
Well on Sunday I did do a bit of baking making some lovely chocolate treats as well as giving flapjacks another go after my last disaster and I am so glad I did. These flapjacks were very sweet and so yummy and are the perfect afternoon snack when you feel that slump coming on.
I had bought some freeze dried raspberries and vegan white chocolate a little while ago and had them in the cupboard until I decided what to do with them. Putting them in these flapjacks was a great idea, they are just so full of flavour.
