Feelgood Choc Orange Brownie

By combining All Bran cereal with this delicious recipe means it contains plenty of fibre and B vitamins, the milk provides calcium and the almonds iron. Dark chocolate has been shown to improve mood and tastes divine.
So no need to have any qualms with this one!

100g All Bran
200g Castor Sugar
200g Self Raising Flour
50g Cocoa Powder
350ml Milk (I used semi skimmed/2% fat)
50g Chopped Almonds (optional)
Dark chocolate pieces
Zest of one orange + few drops of orange essence (optional)

Place the All Bran into a bowl with the milk and cocoa powder and allow to soak for at least 30 minutes.
Then add the sugar, orange zest plus the orange essence and chopped almonds and give it a good mix. Next sieve the flour into the mixture and fold in with a metal spoon, be gentle at this point.
Well grease a square baking tray, a lasagne dish works well, or use individual muffin cases. Pour in half the mixture and then dot with the chocolate pieces, now top up with the remaining mixture. Bake in a pre heated oven at 180 degree C for approximately 20/25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and then cut into squares and place on a wire rack. To serve, dust with icing sugar and/or drizzle with chocolate sauce.
