I made the simple Slimming World breakfast cake that keeps you full until lunch

As we welcome a new year, many of us are determined to ditch unhealthy habits and adopt a healthier lifestyle. However, sticking to a specific diet can often feel restrictive, leaving you feeling like your food choices are limited. But fear not, there's a foolproof recipe that parents swear by for a delicious breakfast 'cake'. This isn't your typical sugar-laden carrot cake, but rather an oat-based flapjack-style treat with significantly fewer calories.
I first came across this recipe a couple of years ago from healthy food creator @cakeontherun, which was circulating amongst the Slimming World community. Despite the rave reviews, I never got around to trying it, reports the Manchester Evening News. Fast forward to now, having been advised to reduce my sugar intake, I decided to give it a go. The recipe calls for oats, egg, yoghurt, fruit and a dash of vanilla essence, resulting in a low-fat, low-calorie, high-fibre dish.
It may not sound particularly enticing, but trust me, it's quite tasty, especially when topped with your favourite fruit - I opted for melon and strawberries. What really amazed me was how satisfying it was. I don't think I've ever managed to last from breakfast to lunch without needing a snack. I'm the type who always has a cereal bar in their handbag 'just in case', and keeps a stash of snacks in their office drawer for when hunger strikes.
