Instructions
- Preheat oven to 140°C. Place a large piece of baking paper flat on the kitchen bench to fit a large baking tray – 40x30cm is ideal or use two smaller trays.
- Place Flora pro-activ, flour, egg white, sugar and honey in a mixing bowl and mix with a hand held mixer until smooth. Spread mixture thinly with a large spatula onto the baking paper, spreading the batter right to the edges of the paper. Slide the paper onto the baking tray. Sprinkle with macadamias and chocolate to garnish.
- Bake on the middle shelf of the oven 30-35 minutes or until golden brown, turn the tray around during cooking. Cool on the baking tray on a cooling rack.
- When cold, break into irregular shapes and store layered between foil in an airtight container.
- Serve as a biscuit with a cup of tea or low fat milk Chai latte.
Served with seasonal fresh fruit and low fat ice cream, it makes a stunning dessert.
