All-Bran Cake, Cheap And Easy And Healthy Too!
 

This is another favourite cake Mum used to cook us from when we first came to Australia.  Years ago we used to slice it up whilst still warm and plaster it with butter.  Now we are more health conscious and we go very lightly on the butter.  It is also good for the bowels.  I think I'll put some All-bran in to soak now!

Food Facts:

Milk is often referred to as a complete food and is one of our most widely used ingredients. The main milks that we consume are cow's, goat's and sheep's milk.  Nowadays we have the option of using "milks" that are non-dairy such as soya, rice and oat milks.  Skim milk contains only half the calories of full fat milk but is nutritionally much the same.  Milk is an important source of calcium and phosphorous.  It also contains reasonable amounts of zinc and the B vitamins.  Cream has a very high fat content varying from 12% to 55% depending on the variety.  Consequently it should be eaten sparingly.  The bacteria that is in yoghurt  ensure that it is easily digestible.  It stimulates the good bacteria in our guts and suppresses the harmful bacteria.
