Fruity Flapjack Pizza - Pinch of Nom Slimming Recipes

For the full list of ingredients and comprehensive instructions, please see the recipe card below. Before you scroll, there’s important stuff in the blurb!

This unmissable sweet treat is made up of a layer of chewy flapjack, smothered in a sweet, creamy topping and decorated with slices of fresh fruit. When you’re counting calories or following a diet plan like Weight Watchers, it can be easy to think that baked goodies like flapjack need to be saved for special occasions. 

Made with lashings of butter and golden syrup, traditional flapjacks aren’t the healthiest option. That’s why we came up with our own slimming-friendly flapjack recipe! By switching to a reduced fat spread rather than butter, and using sweetener instead of sugar, we’ve kept the calories much lower, without losing the taste or texture. 

Sweetened cream cheese and fresh fruit take this treat to the next level. Our Fruity Flapjack Pizzas are so much fun to decorate, and you can get as creative as you like! Why not experiment with different combinations of fruit? The more colourful, the better!

What diets is this Fruity Flapjack Pizza suitable for?

This Fruity Flapjack Pizza  is suitable for vegetarians. It can also be enjoyed on a gluten free diet, as long as you use gluten free rolled porridge oats. 

If you’re cooking for people with allergies, be extra careful when checking ingredients and preparing food!

Do you need any special ingredients to make Fruity Flapjack Pizza?

To keep our flapjack nice and low in calories we have used a golden syrup alternative fruit syrup made by Sweet Freedom. This contains a fraction of the calories found in typical golden syrups.

How many calories are in this Fruity Flapjack Pizza?

There are 202 calories per portion in this Fruity Flapjack Pizza, which means it falls into our Weekly Indulgence category. 

This Fruity Flapjack Pizza is perfect if you’re following a calorie controlled diet, and fits well with any one of the major diet plans such as Weight Watchers. 

As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day. Obviously, if your goal is to lose weight then you might want to adjust these slightly! You can read more about these recommendations on the NHS website.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 160ºC. Grease an 18cm round, fluted, loose-bottomed flan tin with a little reduced fat spread. Line the base with a non-stick baking paper.

Step 1 pinchofnom.com

Step 2

Place the reduced fat spread, granulated sweetener and golden syrup alternative fruit syrup in a small saucepan. Place on a low heat until just melted. Don’t allow the mixture to boil or simmer as this will make your flapjack hard and brittle rather than chewy.

Step 2 pinchofnom.com

Step 3

Stir in the rolled porridge oats and completely mix. Pour into the prepared flan tin, spread out and press down with the back of a dessert spoon.

Step 3 pinchofnom.com Step 3 pinchofnom.com Step 3 pinchofnom.com

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. The flapjack will still be soft, but it will firm up as it cools. Remove from the oven and leave until completely cold before removing it from the tin.

Step 5

Remove the flapjack from the tin: place a jug upside down on the work surface. Place the flan tin on top of the jug, holding the rim of the tin on both sides. Gently push down and the outer ring will drop down and release the flapjack still on the base of the flan tin.

Step 5 pinchofnom.com

Step 6

Use a fish slice to carefully lift the flapjack off the non- stick baking paper and flan tin base. Place the flapjack on a serving plate.

Step 6 pinchofnom.com

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, granulated sweetener and vanilla essence until completely blended.

Step 7 pinchofnom.com

Step 8

Spread the mixture over the flapjack base, leaving a small gap around the edge. Decorate the top with mango slices, sliced strawberries and blueberries. Alternatively, use a selection of soft fruits of your own choice.

Use a large, sharp knife to cut into four slices and serve.

Recipe notes

Tip: Allow the flapjack to cool completely before removing it from the tin. The residual heat in the tin will help it set and it will firm up when completely cold
Tip: Use ordinary rolled porridge oats not the jumbo sized ones. Jumbo sized oats may not stick together well in the flapjack.

    Hey Emma, we used Sweet Freedom Golden Syrup for this recipe, we haven’t tested using agave syrup but it should work fine, hope that helps!

I’m very interested in trying this recipe. In your flapjack base ingredients, you don’t have the amount of granulated sweetener that is needed. Can you please let me know the amount?
