HOMEMADE BRAN FLAKES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) then butter a 13 x 14 inch flat baking tray. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, bran flakes, flax, and salt.
• In a small jug, combine the water, vegetable oil, and molasses.
• Lastly, stream in the wet ingredients, holding some back initially. Mix with the back of your spatula until a sticky dough begins to form. If the mix is too dry add a little more of the wet ingredients until the dough comes together.
• On a large flat surface, lay a tea towel underneath your greased baking tray (this will hold it in place while rolling). Transfer the sticky bran mix to the tray and cover with a large sheet of parchment paper.
• Using a rolling pin roll the dough out to a very thin even sheet the size of the tray. Once rolled out, remove the parchment paper.
• Bake the bran flakes for 45 - 50 minutes until completely dried out and crisp.
