Now, milk slice is especially a favourite of children and I really despise it for this reason. Bade sees it in commercials all the time and finally had the pleasure of tasting it thanks to her friends (she also had me taste it and the damn thing is really delicious.) so it’s a good thing it is this easy to make. But I suggest you use a really wide baking sheet and spread the batter as thin as possible as mine turned out a little thicker than I expected thanks to eggs.
A standart milk slice has these inside:
Ingredients: Fresh Pasteurised Milk (35%), Palm Oil and Fat, Sugar, Wheat Flour, Skimmed Milk Powder, Honey (5%), Concentrated Butter, Whole Egg Powder, Fat-Reduced Cocoa, Fine Bran, Raising Agents, Emulsifier (Mono- and Diglycerides of Fatty Acids), Flavourings, Salt.
And below you can find my grain and refined sugar free version.
By the way, I have just asked Bade:
“Will you ever want to buy milk slice from the store?”
“Nah. You bake it.”
