Cooking with Nicholas...our first baking experience


Nicholas has a new found passion for cooking, thanks to Mr Downie, his Year 6 teacher.


We have made no bake slices before but last weekend he wanted to bake something.

I decided on an Oat and choc chip slice because its simple, it keeps well and its not too unhealthy. Nick was keen to make this one to take on his first overnight school excursion to Mogo on the NSW south coast.

The recipe for the slice is as follows:

1 cup wholemeal plain flour
1 cup rolled oats
2/3 cup dessicated coconut
2/3 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup sultanas
1/2 cup choc bits
125g butter, melted
1 egg

Preheat oven to 180degC. Line a slice tin with baking paper.

Measure dry ingredients into bowl, add egg and butter and mix well.

Spoon into tin and press firmly into tin. This will prevent the slice being too crumbly.

Bake for approx 20 mins or until lovely and golden. Cool and slice. Keeps really well in an air tight container.
