Health Rusks Recipe
Perfect rusks for dunking in your coffee, crisp, light and delicious
Servings: 100
- 250 gram butter
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 litre buttermilk
- 1 kg bran rich self-raising wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder heaped
- 3 cups all-bran flakes
- 2 cups muesli
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Line 3 standard oven trays with baking paper or one very large tray. I have a smeg oven so I used a huge tray, about 90cm x 35cm
Mix all the dry ingredients together and set aside.
Add butter sugar and oil to a very large bowl and beat until well combined and creamy
Add eggs, one at a time and beat well. Mix in the buttermilk
Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Spread onto the baking trays and bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 45 minutes or until golden brown on top
Allow it to cool completely and cut into fingers
Preheat the oven to 60 degrees Celsius. Spread the rusks onto baking trays and dry out in the oven overnight, place a wooden spoon to keep the oven door slightly ajar
- If you can't get the bran rich self-raising flour you can use normal self-raising flour
- I think milk can also work for this recipe as I have seen people use milk but I personally haven't used it
- You can try and halve the recipe and perhaps use one egg. I think it could work as I have seen eggless rusk recipes too
