Lemon Coconut Slice

August 17, 2020 | Healthy Lunchbox, After School Snacks, Baked Sweets

This zesty lemon coconut slice is an easy, low-sugar treat that’s perfect for lunchboxes or snacks, and it’s a staple in the Harding household. With simple steps, it’s a great recipe to get the kids involved—little ones can help mix and press the base, while older kids and teens can tackle the whole thing (with a bit of oven supervision). Whether you’re baking solo or with the family, this recipe is sure to become a favourite!

Health benefits

This is so much healthier than many conventional lemon slice recipes that use condensed milk and crushed biscuits for the base. Lemons are rich in vitamin C, which supports immune health, and the coconut offers healthy fats and fibre for sustained energy. It’s refined sugar-free and using wholemeal spelt flour and oats adds more fibre making this slice a more nourishing option compared to typical sugary treats.

Ingredients

With simple ingredients like melted butter (or coconut oil), wholemeal spelt flour, oats, fresh lemon zest and desiccated coconut, this healthy lemon slice recipe has a wholesome base. The lemon buttercream frosting adds a deliciously tangy finish, and you can easily adjust the recipe with gluten-free or vegan substitutions.

How to make a healthy Lemon Coconut Slice 

To make this healthy Lemon Coconut Slice recipe, simply melt your butter, mix in the sweetener, and stir or blend in the dry ingredients until combined (either by hand or with a food processor). Press the mixture into a baking pan lined with baking paper (parchment paper), bake, and let it cool before adding the lemon buttercream. Once chilled, slice it up and enjoy this delicious treat!

If you own a Thermomix, we’ve also included Thermomix instructions for this recipe.

Serving suggestions and how to store

For the best texture, store this lemon coconut slice in the fridge or freezer. It’s perfect straight from the fridge, or you can freeze it for longer storage. When packing for school lunches, just include an ice pack to keep it fresh.

Vary this lemon coconut slice to suit your needs

For a gluten-free version, swap the spelt flour for a gluten-free flour (or almond meal), and replace oats with quinoa flakes. If you need it dairy-free or vegan, use coconut oil in the base and cashew cream for the icing. For a low-fructose option, sweeten with brown rice syrup instead of honey or maple syrup. This is also perfect for those with egg allergies being egg-free.

Take a look at the variations (below the main recipe) for suggestions to alter the recipe to suit your specific dietary requirements.

Lemon Coconut Slice

This lemon coconut slice is the perfect mix of zesty lemon and creamy coconut in an easy-to-make treat. It’s a wholesome, homemade alternative to store-bought snacks.
Prep Time10 minutes mins
Cook Time15 minutes mins
Chilling time40 minutes mins
Total Time1 hour hr 5 minutes mins
Course: Snack
Servings: 12
Author: Georgia Harding

Ingredients

  • 150 g butter or coconut oil
  • 85 g rice malt syrup, honey or maple syrup (¼ cup approx.)
  • 1 lemon/s – zest (juice reserved for icing)
  • 120 g wholemeal spelt flour (1 cup)
  • 90 g rolled oats (1 cup)
  • 100 g desiccated coconut (1 cup)

Lemon Buttercream (see below note)

  • 70 g butter – at room temperature (important it's not over softened or too cold)
  • 20 ml lemon juice – no more or it may split
  • 3 tbsp rice malt syrup or honey
  • 3 tbsp tapioca flour – or arrowroot
  • 2 tbsp desiccated coconut – for decorating, optional
Metric – US Customary

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/350°F (fan forced).
  • Melt your butter (or coconut oil) in a large pot. If using a Thermomix 90, 1 minute, speed 3.
  • Add the sweetener and mix to combine by hand or in a food processor. If using a Thermomix 30 seconds, temp 90, speed 4.
  • Add all of the other ingredients and process or mix well until combined. If using a Thermomix, reverse speed 4, 30 seconds.
  • Press firmly into a lined slice tin (approx. 17 x 27cm) and bake for 10-12 minutes. Take care not to overcook this as it can dry out. If your oven runs hot, reduce the temperature to 160°C.
  • Allow to cool in the tin (it firms as it cools) and once cooled, pop it into the fridge to chill for 30 minutes or more.

Lemon Buttercream

  • Beat the icing by mixing all of the ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth and creamy. Thermomix butterfly, 20 seconds, speed 3.
  • Spread over the chilled slice.
  • Sprinkle over a little extra desiccated (or shredded) coconut.
  • Chill for 10 more minutes in the freezer, remove from the tin and carefully slice into squares by pressing straight down with a large sharp knife.
  • Refrigerating before slicing makes it much easier to cut without crumbling.

Troubleshooting the icing…

  • If it's grainy or curdled – means the mixture is too cold. It usually needs warming up (either with a hair dryer or a warm towel wrapped around the bowl). Once it is a slightly warmer temperature, whip it up again with an electric beater / Thermomix.
  • If it it is very thin – usually means that the butter/ mixture is too warm and needs cooling down. Putting the bowl in the fridge for 15 minutes or so and then beating it afterwards should fix it perfectly. You can also add a bit more tapioca to thicken it. 

Store

  • Store in the fridge or freeze in an airtight container. The butter icing will soften when left at room temperature.
  • I enjoy these straight from the fridge or freezer. When packing into school lunches, pack against an ice brick.

Notes

Gluten-free

Substitute the spelt with your favourite gluten-free flour and the oats can be replaced by quinoa flakes.

Dairy-free or vegan

Replace the butter in the base with coconut oil (this will produce a tougher/ crisper slice). For the icing a cashew cream would be the best choice.

Low-fructose

Use brown rice syrup as your sweetener.
 
 

Let me know how you love this zesty and delicious treat. I’d really appreciate it if you could leave a short comment and 5 stars!

Banana Rhubarb Raspberry Slice

June 28, 2020 | Healthy Lunchbox, After School Snacks, Baked Sweets

This Banana Rhubarb Raspberry Slice not only looks amazing, it tastes sensational.  The sweetness of the ripe bananas paired with the tartness of the rhubarb really is a match made in heaven.

My kids are both back at school as of today and seeing as this Banana Rhubarb Raspberry Slice is their current favourite snack, it’s only fitting that I share it here in the membership. I can’t wait to hear how you love this, I hope it will be added to your planner and become your family’s new favourite too. Feel free to experiment with other fruits for the topping or if you prefer, you could just make the banana cake part.

Health benefits

This slice is packed with fibre from the bananas, wholemeal spelt flour, and raspberries, supporting digestive health. The rhubarb contributes calcium and vitamin K, while the bananas provide potassium for heart health. With minimal added sugar, this slice is a wholesome alternative to traditional sweet treats.

Ingredients

The ingredients include butter at room temperature, coconut sugar or rapadura (optional), free-range or organic eggs, very ripe bananas, vanilla (in powder, extract, or essence form), and milk of your choice. Ground cinnamon, bicarbonate of soda, and sea salt are also needed. For the dry ingredients, use wholemeal spelt flour. You will also need rhubarb, finely sliced, and fresh raspberries (frozen raspberries can be used if preferred).

How to make this banana rhubarb raspberry slice 

This banana bread begins with blending the wet ingredients, including mashed bananas, eggs, butter, vanilla extract and milk, into a smooth mixture. Dry ingredients such as wholemeal spelt flour, bicarb, and cinnamon are folded into the wet mix, creating a light batter. The batter is poured into a prepared slice tin and topped with thin slices of rhubarb and raspberries. Bake until the centre is set and golden brown.

Serving suggestions and how to store

Serve this slice warm as a comforting snack or dessert with a dollop of Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt. It also pairs well with a hot cup of tea. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze individual portions for convenience.

Vary banana rhubarb raspberry slice to suit 

For a dairy-free version, swap butter with coconut oil or macadamia nut oil. Use your preferred gluten-free flour blend to make it gluten-free. To replace eggs, try chia eggs for a plant-based alternative. Feel free to experiment with different seasonal fruits like blueberries, apples, or pears for variety. For a protein boost, mix in nuts or seeds, or sprinkle them on top before baking.

Tip

Ensure the bananas are very ripe, as their natural sweetness is key to the flavour of this slice, with minimal added sugar used.

Pork and Apple Sausage Rolls

March 24, 2020 | Budget Friendly, Make-ahead Meals, Pork recipes, Freezable Meals, Healthy Lunchbox, After School Snacks, Savoury Snacks

A tasty sausage roll always goes down well at anytime. These Pork and Apple Sausage Rolls offer a delicious combination of savoury pork and sweet Granny Smith apples, wrapped in flaky puff pastry. They’re perfect for snacks, parties, or a quick meal. The hint of mustard and thyme brings an aromatic depth, making these rolls irresistible.

They can also be made ahead and simply baked just prior to serving – which is perfect for entertaining or make-ahead meals. 

Health benefits

Packed with pork mince, grated vegetables, and baby spinach, these sausage rolls are a protein rich meal or snack and a great way to sneak in some extra nutrients. Spinach adds iron, while apples contribute fibre and a touch of sweetness, balancing the savoury flavours. These are packed with nutrition and additive free unlike so many store-bought sausage rolls.

Ingredients

The key ingredients include free-range pork mince, Granny Smith apples, and flaky puff pastry sheets. Grated carrot and baby spinach add texture and colour, while mustard and thyme provide a punch of flavour.

How to make Pork and Apple Sausage Rolls

The instructions for making these sausage rolls is simple. Preheat your oven. Grate the garlic clove, onion, apple, carrot, and spinach, mix them with the ground pork, dried thyme leaves, mustard, and seasoning (salt and pepper) in a large bowl. Spread the pork mixture along the centre of puff pastry strips, roll them up, brush with milk and sprinkle chia seeds (or poppy seeds or sesame seeds) on top. Bake on a baking tray lined with baking paper (parchment paper) until golden brown.

If you own a Thermomix, we’ve also included Thermomix instructions for this recipe.

Turn them into rissoles or patties

You can make these into rissoles or patties by shaping the meat filling into balls, flattening and cooking on the BBQ or in a pan.

Serving suggestions and how to store

Serve these sausage rolls warm with tomato chutney or sauce. They are great party snacks or lunchbox treats. To store, refrigerate or freeze them before baking for a quick option later. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge or frozen in an airtight container.

Vary these pork and apple sausage rolls to suit your dietary needs

For gluten-free sausage rolls, use gluten-free puff pastry. To make them dairy-free, skip the milk brushing. For an onion and garlic-free version, swap them with finely diced fennel and a pinch of chilli flakes. You can also use chicken or turkey mince for a lighter alternative.

Take a look at the variations (below the main recipe) for suggestions to alter the recipe to suit many specific dietary requirements.
