/ Last updated: March 18, 2026
Serves: 1 / Prep time: 5 minutes + overnight chilling

Ingredients:

Base

  • 2 Weet-Bix, roughly crushed*
  • 1/2 cup skim milk or almond milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon sultanas, divided
  • 1 scoop Nuzest Clean Lean Protein Smooth Vanilla

Creamy layer

  • 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt**
  • 1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
  • 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1 scoop Nuzest Clean Lean Protein Smooth Vanilla

Toppings

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon runny cashew butter or almond butter

Method:

  1. In a bowl or jar, combine the crushed Weet-Bix, milk, cinnamon, protein powder and half of the sultanas. Mix until evenly combined, then press the mixture down firmly to form the base layer.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yoghurt, mixed spice, maple syrup and protein powder until smooth and creamy.
  3. Spoon the yoghurt mixture over the Weet-Bix base and smooth the top.
  4. Dust with cinnamon and sprinkle the remaining sultanas over the top.
  5. Drizzle cashew butter or almond butter across the surface to create a cross, inspired by a classic hot cross bun.
  6. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Enjoy chilled the next morning.

Notes

* We used gluten-free, low sugar, Low FODMAP certified Weet-Bix.

** Use Greek yoghurt or a yoghurt of choice — full fat, low fat or dairy-free all work well.
