Lunch box recipes don’t come any quicker or easier than this yummy Oat & Milo Slice! Simply melt, mix and bake… too simple!! This will become a family favourite in no time!
Do you know what I really love? Like really, really love? A no-fuss, super easy recipe that tastes awesome. See, I’m a simple girl at heart!! But seriously, for me to make a recipe over and over again, it’s got to tick those 3 boxes. And this Milo Slice my friends, ticks ALL of those boxes and so many more.
This slice is a variation on my classic ANZAC slice… but with Milo. Yep that’s right. Milo! The queen of all things delicious.
And you know what else is really fab? This slice honestly takes 5 minutes to prepare – just melt, mix and That. Is. It.
Totally, totally my kinda slice.
This Milo Slice is made from pantry staples which means that you can stop reading this right now… go to your cupboard and fridge… whip it up… and be eating it in 30 minutes from now. How awesome is that!? Yay, yay… triple yay for easy slice recipes.
And if you need a little more persuading about how ridiculously simple this Oat & Milo Slice is… what the video and you’ll totally get it! Enjoy!!! xx
PS. Speaking of Milo… have you made my 4 ingredient Milo Balls yet?? Yummity-yum-yum-yum!!

Hi – do you not put the egg in for the thermomix method or is it just a typo please?
Oooh definitely a typo! All fixed now – thanks for the heads up! Yes you add the egg with all of the other ingredients. xx
Oops just made this and read it should have an egg in it too. The thermo recipe didn’t have egg listed when I screen shot it a few days ago Fingers crossed it won’t make too much difference. Thanks for sharing the recipe , I’m going to update mine to include the egg. I’m sure I’ll be making it again
My apologies!!!! That was a typo!! I hope it was ok for you! xx
No problem at all, It still tasted great!! Everyone loved it
Phew!
My kids grew up drinking milo and this would be a lovely dessert to make for them when they come over. I love simple recipes too, and this is perfect! It’s really easy to make and it looks amazing!
Thank you so much! xx
We love this recipe! My daughters don’t like oats so I replaced the oats with 4 weetbix!
Great idea!!!
Could i please ask what MILO is please ? Thank you
Hi Dorothy, it’s a brand of malted milk powder that you can buy in Australia (you can use any brand though!). xx
Milo /ˈmaɪloʊ/ is a chocolate and malt powder that is mixed with hot or cold water or milk to produce a beverage popular mainly in Australia and New Zealand and some other parts of the world. Produced by Nestlé, Milo was originally developed by Thomas Mayne in Sydney, Australia in 1934.
Making this today for a lunchbox filler. Thank you for including weights for the ingredients, it makes my cooking so much quicker and less clean up.
My pleasure! xx
