    I sometimes use Ready Brek instead of flour to make crumble toppings for fruit pies - yummy!

    Great - that's two ideas I can use now. I'd thought ready brek was some other instant breakfast food I remember from way back and was disappointed to find that it tastes exactly like porridge.

    I've got bread, and a rhubarb crumble both planned for tomorrow :)

    I too have gone back to my childhood - I found some Kelloggs Country Store in a local shop recently. Yes, I know it's not exactly good for me, but it has the same sort of calorie and fat intake as my normal museli ...::p

    Just got a loaf started using ready brek instead of some whole wheat flour. I normaly leave it 'til the next day before cutting it - so I'll let you know tomorrow how it went in the breadmaking thread.

    You can add a tablespoon (raw) to fruit smoothies, which is nice :)
