The other night the kids and I felt like something yummy so I jumped on the net for inspiration. I of course wanted to eat the most decadent chocolate mud cake but that’s just not how I roll as I was in search of something yummy with some nutritional value at the same time and little fuss required.
I got the idea of something chocolate in to our heads but we had no cocoa powder so Milo was going to have to be. I had Oats, I had coconut, eggs and this is what we slapped together:
Mini Milo Breaky Bars
1/2 Cup Self Raising Flour
1/2 Cup Plain Flour
1 Cup Oates
1/2 Cup Shredded Coconut
1/3 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Milo
2 Eggs (Now if you add 2 eggs you get a thicker more cake like result 1 egg is like a slice)
100g Butter
Just plop the dry stuff in a bowl, whisk up the eggs a bit and melt the butter, pour in and mix until all wet. You can add more healthy stuff like LSA, Chia seeds, nuts, grated carrot, gratted apples or whatever you like.
Pop on a flat tray and bake in the oven at 180.c 15-20mins
I slice them up in to toddler handful sizes and Mr 1 has been having them for breaky (sometimes in the car on the way to the school drop off!). The bigger two have been having them after tea thinking they are having some kind of chocolate yumminess when really they are having my kind of chocolate healthiness!

I made these for my boys today and they were a big hit. I try to make their snack food and am always looking for new ideas. These will be a regular in our house now. I didn’t have any milo so used cocoa and they were yum.

These were lovely thank you! I cant seem to get much into my 13 month old at the moment but she devoured these. I switched the butter for coconut oil, sugar for rapadura sugar and added chia seeds and a handful of chopped dried cranberries. Lovely!

Kymberley, that’s great to hear. I made them again tonight with coconut oil instead of butter and almond meal instead of plain flour and now I’m eating them guilt free! R

A glass of pure fruit juice, bananas, yoghurt, low-calorie muesli with semi skimmed or skimmed milk, fresh fruit salad with few spoonfuls of low fat yoghurt, fresh and raw veggies mixed with flavoured yoghurt, a slice of toast or plain bread with eggs, boiled or poached are some of the options for breakfast. Kids can enjoy a Smoothie with their favourite fruits; add dash of yoghurt or honey to make it more delicious.;
