Help me make over my choc weetbix slice!

[JLeigh29]

Have you seen the cookbook that Jerry Seinfeld's wife wrote about hiding vegetables?

No. Might check it out though. I've tended to give up on most 'hidden recipes' as they only grate stuff and DS will painstakingly go through and pick every bit out, or just flat out refuse to eat it! We suspect there's a bit of a sensory issue going on, so are dealing with that...I remember when DS was little (and ate everything!), I used to vow I'd never hide fruit or veges in anything and anyone who did was doing things all wrong! Ha! Now we hide them in everything...

This book uses purees so nothing to pick out, which is why it works.

The wholemeal flour is not any better than white flour. Sub it for coconut flour.

Do you think coconut flour would work? I'm not used to subbing in recipes so I didn't recommend it but it's the best choice for sure. It's all we use I do know that you need a lot less of it so try 1/4 cup of coconut flour in place of the 1 cup of flour.

With the raw cacao and pureed veg like beets you could possibly get rid of the flour all together.

Is the recipe baked? You can also add an egg or two to bind it together and that will add extra nutrition and healthy fats. The more fat & protein you can get into it the more satiating it will be too so you'll eat less at a time which will help you eat less of the starches and sugar in it.

I mainly said no oatbran because you already have a stack of refined carbs in there with the weetbix and flour and there's no need for more- just overloading your body with sugar to process.
