Makes 24 squares
I first made this slice a couple of years ago, the good old fashioned way and posted this recipe. I was keen as mustard to try it out in the Thermomix, and I am happy to report that it’s as quick to make and delicious to eat as ever. There’s something about the moist chewiness of the oats, the crunch of the nuts and the juiciness of the sultanas that sends people wild! And don’t get me started on how much peeps love the lemon icing, they say it was the tops!
Ingredients
125g butter
220g brown sugar
1 egg
135g rolled oats
50g walnuts, roughly chopped
50g sultanas
1 medium carrot, roughly chopped
110g plain flour
35g self-raising flour
LEMON GLAZE
160g pure icing sugar
1 egg white
1 tablespoon lemon juice
