Weet Bix Slice

My toddler has a sweet tooth and loves biscuits, slices and all things fruity, except for most actual fruit! I am always on a quest to make healthier sweets than those bought in the supermarket and this one is a hit. 

I developed this recipe after a google search for Weet Bix Slice only revealed very chocolatey, sugary slices containing very few Weet Bix. 

It's not just for kids, of course. It's a lovely treat for morning or afternoon teas or with a cuppa after dinner. 

Healthier Than Most Weet Bix Slice

8 Weet Bix, well crushed
1 cup wholemeal SR flour (you could use white SR flour)

1 teaspoon baking powder1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

2 tablespoons Akta-Vite, Milo or cocoa

1 cup sultanas

125g butter, melted

2 eggs, beaten

2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (use essence if you must)

Preheat fan-forced oven to 170c.
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
In a separate jug, combine butter, eggs, milk and vanilla.
Add wet into dry ingredients and mix well. Spread into a slice tin lined with baking paper.

Cook for 25 minutes.

Keep it in the fridge for up to a week, if it lasts that long! 

Please try it and let me know what you think.
