Wow! This was delicious! I’m enjoying creating desserts with Ready Brek as it’s an ideal substitute for flour if you’re trying to make something resembling a sponge. It’s very filling and an eighth of this is plenty.
It’s just 1 point per serving on No Count and 4 points if following WW Freestyle.
Ingredients (serves 8):
- 200g Ready Brek
- 80g Flora light, melted
- 1 flat tbsp Splenda (or alternative sweetener for 0sp)
- 4 eggs
- 1 heaped tsp baking powder
- 8 tbsp skimmed milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 to 8 pear halves (I used tinned in natural juice)
- 8g flaked almonds (optional) 2g per person is free
Method:
- Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
- Put the Ready Brek, Splenda and baking powder into a bowl and mix.
- In a separate bowl, add the Flora, vanilla extract, milk and egg yolks. Mix this together and then fold into the Ready Brek mixture.
- Whisk the egg whites and fold this in too.
- Pour into a non-stick baking tin (mine is 9 inches in diameter) and add the pears – push them down slightly into the mixture. (I have since made this with more pear halves which is even better.)
- Sprinkle the almonds over the top.
- Bake in the oven for about 25 -30 minutes. (Check if it’s cooked all the way through.)
- Enjoy!
Tried this tonight Helen, it’s lovely but I think in future I would make half of the recipe for the base, as it’s quite thick, and put a few more pear halves in. Still enjoyed it though with some sweetened fromage frais and a small squirt of orange spice choc shot. Lovely xx
Hi Val, I know what you mean about the thickness so it would be a good idea to halve the mixture if it’s not quite to your liking.
Looking yummy will make for Sunday pudding as a treat
Hi and thank you Shirley
I have not made it yet but it looks fab, only a few other recipes you hve used fat free yogurt instead of flora light do you think this would work on this one?
Hi Christine, thank you for your comment
This sounds gorgeous Helen- I definitely want to try this one!!
Thanks Mands, it is better with more pear halves in it – I’ve used as many as eight:-)Helen xxxx
