I received so many requests for this recipe after I uploaded a preview to my Instagram story while baking a few days back! It took a few days to perfect, so I hope you enjoy (I know I did)!

You may also add additional ingredients to this recipe for extra crunch or flavour such as nuts: walnuts, pecans etc. or different spices, don’t be scared to mix it up, that’s why I love suggesting modifications so you can make these recipes I provide exactly to your liking.

Have a slice breakfast, as a snack or for post-workout gains!

I personally enjoy it best toasted with some grass-fed organic butter, but the options to eat this are endless: spread a slab of nut butter, sliced bananas, chocolate chips, dip it in your coffee & the list goes on ;)
