Milo Weetbix Balls Thermomix

Milo Weetbix Balls are a super quick, kid-friendly bliss ball made in five minutes from leftover Weetabix and milo!

Do your kids come home from school absolutely ravenous? Mine do! If I didn't know better I would have said they hadn't eaten for days! So the challenge is to have quick snacks on hand, ready for them to consume before they move on to sports training, homework, or any other after-school activities.

I try to completely avoid buying packaged snacks as I want to limit the trans-fats, and artificial colours and preservatives. Whilst I know this snack includes condensed milk and Milo, so it is high in sugar, I feel that my children burn so much energy it doesn't hurt as a sometimes food.

Also, packaged snacks are just not good value for money. Whereas these Weetbix bliss balls are very thrifty as they make use of the Weet-bix crumbs at the bottom of the cereal box. For some reason, no one ever eats those!!

Previously I've shared my Chocolate Weetbix Slice recipe, this is another fabulous use for the leftover Weet-bix. If you haven't already tried this recipe I would recommend giving it a go too!

Weetbix Ball Ingredients

Just 4 basic pantry ingredients are used in this Milo and Weetbix snack;

• Crumbled Weet-bix
• Milo
• Condensed Milk
• Dessicated Coconut

Food Processor Method

1. Place all the ingredients into a food processor and blitz until the mixture comes together.
2. Roll the weetbix balls in chocolate sprinkles or extra Milo.
3. Store in fridge until required.

Substitute Ingredients

1. Can you substitute home brand weetbix or vita-weets?

YES, feel free to substitute with other brands, this will have no effect on the finished bliss balls

2. I don't have Milo, what can I substitute?

You can substitute Cadbury drinking chocolate for Milo if you prefer.

3. How do I make this recipe Gluten-Free?

To make this recipe Gluten-free swap out the Weet-bix for gluten-free Weet-bix and swap the Milo for a Cadbury Cocoa powder. Please double-check ingredients packaging for allergen information.

4. What should I coat the Weetbix Balls in?

The coating is to stop the bliss balls from sticking together. You can toss the balls in extra desiccated coconut, chocolate sprinkles, or extra milo.
