If I get the time I'll bake some low fat/low sugar ones. Way better than store ones.

Prune and chocolate crunch - no I'm not joking...

125g stoned prunes
4 tblsps water
a little low fat spread for greasing
150g SR flour
125g porridge oats
75g canderel sugar substitute
3 tsps cocoa powder

Topping - can be omitted to lower the calories even further
100g icing sugar
2 tsps cocoa powder
a little orange juice

1. Blend the prunes and water in a blender until almost smooth - you can mash with fork or potato masher but it takes a lot longer

2. Grease a swiss-roll type baking tin. Place the prune puree and the remaining ingredients, except the topping ones, in a large bowl and mix well.

3. Spread the mixture evenly in the tin and bake in a pre-heated oven, 180C (350F) gas mark 4, for about 30 mins. Leave to cool in the tin.

4. Before it is completely cold, mix together the ingredients for the topping in a bowl then spread over the crunch. Cut into about 12 squares.

If you don't have a swiss-roll tin, you can use a similar sized baking tray or tin but I then line with greasproof paper after greasing as it makes it easier to get out.

Enjoy. I also have a good recipe for poppy seed and banana loaf.....
