Hello All!
I know this sounds nuts, but I LOVE IT! I have quite a sweet tooth and regularly have this as a sweet cereal. Alternatively it makes a great dessert that reminds me of bread and butter custard pudding!
Ingredients:
Sainsburys Breakfast Wholewheat Basic Biscuits (63p for 24!)
Small handful of raisins or sultanas
Alpro Soya vanilla flavoured milk
Directions:
Pour a SMALL amount of milk over the biscuits, leaving them in a shallow puddle. Leave them for 5 minutes. It sounds crazy, but after a few minutes almost all the milk should be absorbed and the biscuits should be soft but still retain their form, giving them a "bready" (as in, bread and butter custard) taste. Sprinkle a handful of the fruit over the top. Enjoy!
If I'm having this for breakfast, I have 2 biscuits. If I just fancy a little dessert after a meal, I have 1, which is even less cals!
Calories:
2 x Wheat biscuits = 101 calories (as per Sainsbury's website)
100ml vanilla milk = 62 calories
Sprinkling of raisins/sultanas = 30 calories
TOTAL = 193
PLUS! It's WHOLEWHEAT, with vitamins (from the biscuits), added calcium and low in saturated fat (from the milk), and it puts you on your way to 5 a day!
