Scan Bran

Ok well I'll start today officially as its weigh day so we could check in next Friday with how it went! I'll start another thread in the challenges section if I can work out how ;-)
 
Ok we have a challenge set in the sub forum....come and join up if you think you (or scan bran) are hard enough x
 
The little cake things I make are worth trying.

5 scan bran soaked in boiling water and drained mixed with 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 3-4 tablespoons Splenda, beaten egg.

When all combined put in a dish spayed with frylite (I use a small rectangle one that I got from Poundland or somewhere)

Microwave for about 4 minutes.

I cut mine in to 8 bits. Works out as 1 syn per bit or if you eat it all in one day its a HEB and 2 syns

Lovely with sweetened quark/fromage frais on top and some berries. Or just with a cup of coffee - very chocolaty tasting
 
I tried Scan Bran last week, I can't yet eat the 5 slices you can have as its soooooooo filing and my jaw would probably fall out. It does however really make me full after a couple of slices and encourages me to drink more water rather than diet coke. :D I bought some more this week, may even try to make something with it :)
 
Best thing to do with scan bran is to make Ferrero Rocher sweets!

Pete’s Ferrero Rocher (2013)

27 Syns in total/24 made just over 1 Syn each

Ingredients
1 Pack of Options (Belgium Chocolate) (2 syns)
3 level tbsp. of nutella (12 syns)
5 scan bran (5 syns)
25g Mixed nuts (8 syns)
Warm water

Method

Place the scan bran & nuts into a food blender and reduce to small pieces. Place in a glass bowl & mix.

Place 3 level tbsp. of nutella into a microwave proof dish and microwave for 30 secs (600w), remove and add warm water as required to make a paste.
Add the scan bran and mix until the liquid has been totally absorbed.
Using a plastic spatula scrap a small portion of the mix & shape into balls.

Place on a tray and place into the fridge to chill. When cold remove from the fridge and roll in the contents of a packet of “options” Belgium chocolate! Rechill if required.

Enjoy and remember total syns are 27 and I made 24 of them! Just over 1 Syn each.
