Receta Coconut And Cranberry Rusk Recipe

by Tandy Sinclair

I am not good at breakfast! I tend to eat fruit to stave off the hunger until I really feel like eating a bowl of granola or making myself two soft boiled eggs with my egg boiler. Then the other day I took rusks to work and I decided that it was a great snack to have sitting on my desk for when I felt peckish, and when I did not feel like getting up to make breakfast. Basically I am lazy about food at work! I will continue to make different flavours of rusks but this week I decided to make rusks using spelt flour with the addition of coconut and cranberries. The spelt is not very pronounced in these coconut and cranberry rusks and I will make a batch using more until I can taste the spelt. In the meantime, I made a batch of rusks and within 2 days they were devoured – clearly Dave likes the fact that they are on his desk as much as I do.

Coconut And Cranberry Rusk Recipe

Ingredients:

• 250g self-raising flour
• 1.25mls baking powder
• 2.5mls fine salt
• 25g spelt flour
• 55g cranberries
• 35g dried apricots, sliced
• 25g blanched hazelnuts, chopped
• 15g desiccated coconut
• 85g sugar - I used fructose
• 125g butter, melted
• 125g plain yoghurt
• 1 egg, beaten

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180° Celsius

Line a loaf tin with baking paper

Place the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl

Mix together the butter, yoghurt and egg

Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid ingredients

Mix until well combined

Pour the batter into the loaf tin and push the cranberries under the batter so that they don’t burn

Bake for 45 minutes

Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely on a wire rack

Preheat the oven to 40° Celsius

Cut into chunks and bake for 3 hours to dry out
