Bran and muesli buttermilk rusks with seeds recipe
Prep Time:20 minutes
Cook Time:30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 kg self-raising flour I didn't have so I added 1 tsp per cup - so 7 tsp baking powder to 1kg cake flour
  • 140 grams or 1 cup Krakley Wheat flour or whole-wheat flour
  • 100 grams 750ml All-Bran flakes
  • 125 grams 1 cup toasted or plain muesli.  I didn't have muesli so added 90g oats and 50g raisins
  • 1 cup seeds (chia, sunflower. pumpkin, sesame) I added half sunflower and half sesame
  • 200 grams sugar
  • 5 ml 1 tsp/ salt
  • 5 ml 1 tsp / baking powder I added this extra spoon as well
  • 400 grams butter melted gently in the microwave or on the stove
  • 200 ml sunflower oil
  • 500 ml buttermilk
  • 3 eggs lightly beaten

Instructions

  • preheat the oven to 180 C and grease 2 baking trays (I use Spray & Cook)
  • in a very large bowl combine all the dry ingredients
  • In a separate bowl lightly beat the eggs, add the sunflower oil and buttermilk and mix
  • make a well in the dry mixture and pour in all the liquid (including the melted butter) and mix together with a wooden spoon until all combined (its a very sticky situation and you could use your hands but I persevere with the spoon)
  • Spread the mixture into the 2 baking trays (with sides) and bake in the oven for 30 minutes until golden brown.
  • allow to cool and remove from the pans and on a wooden board cut into fingers or squares, however you like your rusks * I use an electric carving knife to do this - So much easier!
  • Place to rusks back onto the baking trays, if you are short of space you can turn then sideways and stack next to each other.
  • place them back into a low oven of 60 c for about 6 - 9 hoursĀ or at 100C (fan forced) for 4 - 5 hours.
  • Turn off the oven and leave them in overnight 

Notes

These will keep in a sealed container for about a month.
