Everyone has tried Weet bix as a breakfast cereal but have you tried it in baking?
It’s a wholegrain cereal with added vitamins and minerals, and it has plenty of flavour.
This recipe combines Weet-Bix with other tasty and nutritious ingredients such as wholemeal flour, desiccated coconut and coconut oil.
Using wholemeal flour results in a denser slice, but it’s also much more filling and healthy for growing (and shrinking) bodies.
Combined with desiccated coconut, this slice has a very high fibre content which will help your body work at its maximum efficiency.
Coconut oil is another key ingredient, which is an amazing product! Easily used to replace butter in recipes, coconut oil has been shown to reduce sugar cravings, reduce abdominal fat, speed metabolism and may even smooth out wrinkles!

Icing
- 1 cup coconut sugar

- Preheat oven to 180 degrees
- Combine all slice ingredients and stir until well combined. If it seems too dry, add a little more milk. Mixture should be moist but crumbly.
