Questions about Weetabix cereal
How many Weetabix biscuits make a filling breakfast?
Two biscuits with milk or yoghurt and fruit make a familiar bowl; add a banana or berries if you want it more substantial. Two biscuits weigh about 37.5 g and provide 133 kcal.
Do you eat Weetabix hot or cold?
Both work: pour over cold milk for a quick bowl, or make a warm bowl by adding hot milk and leaving the biscuits to soften for a minute. Stir in porridge-style toppings such as chopped apple or cinnamon.
How do you stop Weetabix going soggy?
Pour milk over the biscuits just before eating, rather than letting them stand. For a crunchier bowl, add yoghurt and fruit first and crumble Weetabix over the top.
Can you use Weetabix in baking?
Yes. Crush the biscuits and use them in place of some of the flour or oats in flapjacks, muffins and crumble toppings; they absorb moisture, so add them gradually and keep the mixture moist.
What goes well with Weetabix?
Milk, yoghurt, sliced banana, berries, grated apple, honey and cinnamon are all easy additions. Crumbled Weetabix also works as a crunchy topping for yoghurt or stewed fruit.
How should you store Weetabix after opening?
Keep the biscuits in their inner wrapper, inside the box or an airtight container, in a cool, dry cupboard. Seal the pack well so they do not absorb moisture and lose their crispness.
Is Weetabix high in fibre?
Yes. A 37.5 g portion provides 4.2 g of fibre; adding fruit or nuts can make the bowl more varied.
Is Weetabix a good source of iron?
It is particularly rich in iron: a 37.5 g portion provides 6.4 mg. Serve it with fruit such as strawberries or kiwi for a fresh contrast.
