Tips

  • The margarine in this recipe can be replaced with 250g of apple sauce to make a lower fat version. This tip can also be used on other slice recipes and in dense cakes like fruit cake.
  • Different varities of muesli have different flavours, so experiment with a few to see which ones you like best.
