INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-heat your oven to 180 Celsius.
Beat the eggs until foamy. Add all other ingredients for the sponge and mix well. it is essential that you don’t leave out the psyllium husk. It acts as a binder and is, very conveniently, super healthy as well.
Pour the liquid mixture onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. To ensure you can easily remove the baked sponge later, lightly grease the baking paper first.
Bake for 12 minutes. Depending on your baking sheet, you might have to do this in 2 batches. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
For the filling, warm the milk in a pan (it should not boil) and stir in the gelatine granules until completely dissolved.
Place in the fridge until set.
Peel the cooled sponge off the baking paper and pre-cut it to the desired shape. My slices were ca 10 cm long and 4 cm wide.
Spread the milk filling over the sponge (ca 1/2 cm thick) and top with the second layer of pre-cut sponge slices.
My mix yielded 10 milk slices, however, I did have some leftovers – offcuts, if you wish. Like I mentioned in the text, feel free to recycle them into less pretty, yet equally delicious desserts.
It’s worth mentioning that the original kinder milk slice weighs 28g and is therefore roughly half the weight of my milk slice. Yet my version has only 1.1g sugar (compared to 8.3 g) and 2.8g net carbs.
