33. Australian Weet Bix Squares Recipe

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls (1 large, 1 small)
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • 8 inch Square baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Whisk or fork

Ingredients

  • 4 Weet-Bix biscuits, crushed into fine crumbs
  • 1 cup self-raising flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a 8in x 8in square baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Weet-Bix biscuits, self-raising flour, brown sugar, and desiccated coconut. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, lightly beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well combined and forms a sticky dough.
  • Press the dough into the prepared baking pan and smooth it out with a spatula.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, cut into 8 squares and serve.

Notes

Tips and Tricks

Make sure the Weet-Bix biscuits are crushed into fine crumbs to ensure an even texture.
Use a fork to whisk the wet ingredients together instead of a whisk for easier cleaning.
Line the baking pan with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the squares from the pan once they're done baking.
