How do you store / freeze flapjacks ?

Options
Afternoon everyone. I am in a baking mood and have just made a banana and walnut loaf and some banana flapjacks. I know I can freeze the banana loaf but can someone tell me the best way to store it please and also can I freeze the flapjacks if so again how best to store them. Also how long do they keep fresh for in a box.

Loats of questions. Thanks in advance

    Yes, you can freeze them, and i tend to store them in a tin with a lid on, they dont last that long, but im sure they are fine for at least a week!!!!

    lol thriftlady!!

    Just to note, I find they do get very crumbly after being frozen, musch more so than before. maybe it's just me....but hey! Thought I'd mention it...perhaps should eat them frozen to avoid this!

    I'm more of a "eat it straight from the oven and burn the hell out of my mouth" girl!

    I usually wrap the flapjacks seperately in cling film and then freeze.

    Never found them to be crumbly.

    (I also do the burn the mouth off thing when first out the oven coz they smell so scrummy :D )

    I'd cook them and freeze them.
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.
