Full preparation
-
Heat the oven to 180°C/fan 160°C/gas mark 4. Line a 20 x 20cm baking tray with baking paper.
-
In a medium sized bowl, mash the bananas. Then crack in the eggs and stir well to combine. Add the Pink Lady apple, maple syrup, spices, bicarbonate of soda, lemon zest and juice and olive oil.
-
Add in the ground almonds, ground flaxseeds and 2 tbsp of the mixed seeds. Mix until fully combined.
-
Tip the mixture into the prepared baking tray and distribute evenly, using the back of a spoon. Scatter over the remaining seeds and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until starting to brown on top. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn’t burn.
-
Remove from the oven and leave to cool before cutting into 8-10 portions.
