weetabix baking

Today, on the first day of SPRING BREAK (woohoo), i spent my day in pajamas, lazing about the house and drinking tea. Oh, and also making up recipes. This one was insprired by this weird cereal that has been sitting around my house and not being eaten. I thpought, hey, people make cake out of oatmeal, why not out of...Weetabix?
And so i began concocting and mixing and tasting in a devilish frenzy until I came up with this final recipe:


2 crushed (well crushed!) Weetabix chunks? pieces? rounds? cakes? WHATEVER THEY ARE CALLED.
2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup sugar

ginger, nutmeg, vanilla, cinnamon, cloves

1 and 1/2 teaspoons combined of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and fresh ground cloves (those spices are listed in order of how much I put in)
1 cup milk
1/8 cup (-ish, just for moistness) of plain yogurt 
2 teaspoons vanilla


1. CRUSH YOUR WEETABIX. I cannot stress eough how important this is, do you want clumps of gross dryness in your loaf? NO, you do not.
2. Add CRUSHED Weetabix, flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar into a large/medium mixing bowl.
3. Add your ONE TEASPOON TOTAL of your own personal spice concoction, not one teaspoon of each spice, ONE TEASPOON TOTAL.
4. Mix up those dry ingredients.
5. Add yourself some milk, yogurt and vanilla and mix/whisk until everything is well incorporated.

6. At this point, taste your batter (if you have restrained yourself until now), and add extra milk or spices for taste and texture issues that you discover--IF you discover any issues at all. 
7. Bake at 325 degrees for forty five minutes.
Remove from oven, let cool, slice, EAT!

The bread just came out of the oven and, although its oddly chewy, its pretty damn good for some ingredients i threw into a bowl :)
