No Bake Weetbix Slice

Weet-bix is a popular breakfast cereal in Australia made from whole-grain wheat, providing a nutritious and crunchy start to the day.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Weetbix in a dessert? Isn’t that sacrilegious?”

But trust me, once you try this Weetbix slice, you’ll never look back. Plus it’s a great way to use up those Weetbix and crumbs left in the box.

Once you have tried this, my lemon version of this Weetbix slice has a citrus twist you’ll love!

Like my Rice Bubble Slice, it’s like a party in your mouth. With the crunch of Weetbix mingling with the smooth sweetness of white chocolate.

White chocolate is the maverick of the chocolate world, the rebel without a cause. It’s not really chocolate, but it’s still delicious, and we all secretly love it.

It really shines through in this 5 Ingredient Biscoff Rocky Road!

📋 Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

• Chia seeds – do not substitute these for another seed.

• Weet-bix – is also known as Weetabix in the UK. To make gluten-free, use gluten-free Weet-bix. For a US substitute, try using Shredded Wheat or Unsweetened Weeties.

• Almond butter – can try substituting with another nut butter such as peanut or cashew butter.

• Honey – use runny honey, not solid or emulsified raw honey. I have not tested this recipe using maple syrup. The sticky consistency of honey helps to stick the base together.

• White chocolate chips – you may substitute this with dark or milk chocolate chips using the same quantity.

• Coconut oil – is used to thin out the consistency of the white chocolate chips. You can try substituting it with another neutral-flavored vegetable oil.

🥣 Step By Step Instructions (with photos)

There is a full and detailed recipe card at the bottom of this post.

Step one: Pour water into a small jug or bowl. Add the chia seeds, mix with a spoon and set aside to thicken for 5 minutes.

Step two: In a large mixing bowl, crush up each Weetbix using your hands.

Step three: Add almond butter, honey and the soaked chia seeds. 

Step four: Mix together using your hands or a wooden spoon until the Weetbix is coated in the wet ingredients and the mixture sticks together. 

Step five: Press the mixture into the lined tin and press it in firmly to create a sturdy base. Set aside. 

Step six: Pour melted white chocolate over the base and spread it out in an even layer with a spoon or spatula. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours until the base is firm and the chocolate is solid. 

Step eight: To cut, leave the slice at room temperature for 5-10 minutes until the chocolate has softened slightly. Take a sharp knife and cut it into squares. 

💭 Expert Tips

• Mix the Weetbix mixture with your hands: instead of a wooden spoon, it’s easier to mix the base with your hands since the almond butter is quite thick.

• Firmly press the Weetbix base into the tin: make sure to pack the base mixture in firmly to ensure a solid and sturdy slice.

• Use good-quality white chocolate chips: for the topping to ensure a smooth and creamy consistency.

• If the white chocolate is too thick: add more coconut oil to thin it out until you can spread it.

• Refrigerate the slice: long enough so the base becomes firm and it’s easy to cut into squares.

• Slice it with a warm knife: Hold your knife under hot running water from the tap for a few seconds, wipe it dry then cut your slice. A warm knife is easier to cut through solid chocolate on top.

⏲️ Storage Instructions

Store the Weetbix slice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
