I have got 1/2 a box of weetbix to use up as the family aren't eating it, but here's my problem . they don't like it lol.I need to find some baking recipes that can use the rest of the box up, but the baking can't taste like weetbix or they won't eat it.Has anyone got any yummy baking recipes that includes weetbix, but doesn't taste like it! lol

This is the weetbix loaf recipe I use.
4 crumbed weet bix 1 cup sugar 1 cup mixed dried fruit, chopped if bigger then raisins (our fav is apricots) 30 grams butter 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 cup boiling water 1 egg, beaten 1 cup self-raising flour (if using plain flour add 1 teaspoon of baking powder)
Put first 5 ingredients into a bowl and cover with the boiling water, stand for 5 minutes. (Don’t drain any water off) Add egg and flour mixing well, bake in a greased and lined loaf tin at 180 degree C for 40 minutes (do the skewer test as mine actually takes almost an hour, depends on oven) Cool in tin. *Plus this is really popular in my house. Weetbix slice
150g butter 1 c flour 5 crushed weetbix 2 T cocoa 1 cup sugar 1 t baking powder 1/2 t vanilla (optional) Melt butter, pour over dry ingreds. Press into a slice tin. bake at 180 for 15 or so mins (until it isn't really squishy, but not till it is too hard as is hardens up a bit on cooling) Ice it with chocolate icing while it is hot (I press it down slightly with my oven mitts first) then cut when cold.

Thanks twinsfor us, this weetbix loaf is lovely.I find it very moist and it definitely needs the full hour plus another five mins, Our favourite is half a cup sultanas and half a cup dried figs. Cheers

I make the Edmonds Afghan recipe with Weetbix instead of cornflakes. We now prefer it that way :)
