Sweet and tangy this tasty little treat is currently sitting downstairs waiting for me to photograph it and while it waits it is filling the house with such wonderful scents that I am beginning to feel ravenously hungry!

No mean feat seeing as I have just had lunch. I know that I’m not the only one in the house currently feeling like this so I had better finish up quickly and get those photos for you as soon as possible!

This flapjack is the perfect balance – light and sweet but with a gorgeous 'lemoness' that can only be produced by lemon curd. I won’t bore you with how much I love lemon curd – I’m pretty sure I did that a couple of weeks back – but I will link you (here) to my recipe so if you don’t have one that you go to, and have found like me that it is impossible to get hold of a gluten free, white sugar free, dairy free, egg free version in the shops, you know the method I use!

It tastes absolutely out-of-this-world and one batch will be enough for 3 to 4 batches of lemon curd flapjacks!!!!! Any leftovers can be stored in the fridge until needed. If you house is anything like my house that won’t be for too long!!!!
