Egg-free rusks

Preheat the oven to 180 ºC (350 ºF). Spray a deep 28 x 38 cm oven pan with non-stick spray.

Combine the self-raising flour, salt and bran. Add the sugar and raisins and mix. Add the melted margarine to the milk and mix with the dry ingredients. Turn the mixture into the prepared oven pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 30 minutes or until done – a testing skewer should come out clean when inserted.

Cool slightly before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Break into pieces and place on a baking sheet. Reduce the oven temperature to 100 ºC (200 ºF) and dry the rusks overnight or until dry.

Store in an airtight container.

Makes about 47 pieces.
