RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
- Prepare the baking tin - ensure that you grease and then line an 18cm x 28cm (7 x 11 inch) baking tin with baking paper. The baking paper should overlap the sides of the tin to allow for easy removal of the slice for cutting.
- Honey substitute - you can substitute the honey for rice malt syrup, corn syrup or golden syrup.
- Cutting the slice - remove the chilled slice from the fridge. Using a large flat, sharp knife, cut the slice into small pieces.
- Storing - store the slice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week - this will keep the slice extra crunchy!
- Freezing - freeze the slice in an airtight container in for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost before consuming.
- Dairy-free option - to make this dairy-free, simply substitute the butter for a dairy-free alternative (such as Nuttelex) and either omit the drizzle of melted white chocolate on top or substitute for a dairy-free brand.
- Gluten-free option - to make this Honey Cornflake Slice recipe gluten-free, simply use gluten-free Corn Flakes (which are readily available at all major supermarkets and grocers).
