[jade-h]

[FONT=&quot]Low-syn chocolate cake*_ [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]*9 yummy syns or 6.5 syns + 1 hex b choice* [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]5 Scan Bran [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]3 beaten eggs [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 Lvl tbsp golden syrup [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1oz cocoa powder [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Half mug of sweetner [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]1. Soak the Scan Bran in boiling water to soften, Then drain and mash. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]2. Mix all the ingredients together and pour in a microwavable bowl. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]3. Microwave on high for 7 mins. When cooked the cake will be springy to touch and will have pulled away from the sides. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4. For a free topping, pile with (defrosted) frozen forest fruits or, for extra syns, top with chocolate spread.[/quote][/FONT]

does this cake taste a bit nicer when cooked in the oven? i have been told you can do it in the oven
just it seemed a bit soggy in the microwave

i topped it with chocolate spread too which made it lovely! i wish there could be a chocolate spread lower in sins though :/

i prefer them to ryvita!!! they are lovely with extra light laughing cow cheeses and cucumber!

If you want you can substitute scan bran for Rye Ryvita, the recipes come out OK, it is cheaper and a lot easier to get hold of.

I couldn't eat them, but someone suggested they are nicer toasted, so I tried that today and it was better. I had a couple with some reduced fat cheddar on for a snack. Much better than eating them straight out of the packet, when they are indeed like carpet tiles! But ace in recipes.

I've just bought my scan bran for the first time and am sadly excited about baking a cake with it. What's favourite?
My other question - if anyone out there has substituted all bran for scan bran - is it the same no of points etc if you just use same weight of all bran

Happy slimming everyone
