On all plans a hex B under dried/canned & cooked fruit - can be 225g apple baked and 1 level tbsp mincemeat

I made a spiced apple ScanBran cake. A whole one = 2 HExBs and no Syns. I plan to make it as muffins next time.

5 ScanBran (HExB1)
Apple (cored, NOT peeled and chopped into small chunks) + level tbsp mincemeat (this is the 2nd HExB, but check weight of apple as I don't have the info with me)
Yogurt (I used 170g plain ff as no Mullers in stock but think a banana & custard or toffee one would work)
1 beaten egg
Spices and sweetener to taste.

Combine ingredients well and microwave as usual. I found I needed a slightly larger container than usual, but maybe I had more yogurt than in a Muller and it took a good 10mins to cook. Good as a hot pudding or a cold cake.

Silly question but do you soak scan bran first?

 

[NotsofattyPatty]

Yes - soak in boiling water for a few seconds, just long enough to soften but not break up, then drain. You should then be able to break them up with a fork.
