Australians and New Zealanders love a slice. There's nowhere else in the world where a slice means what it does to us. I remember confusing my American cousin with talk of ‘making a weetbix slice’ - explaining weetbix was tough enough (there's no equivalent in the US, with all cereal being bite size), but then I also had to explain a slice! I deferred to the Australian Women's Weekly definition:
‘Somewhere between a cake and a tart and baked in a large slab, slices are sweet treats that can be made of one mixture or have multiple layers, with a base that’s covered with a topping and/or a filling’. This Blueberry Crumble Slice is so delicious and surprisingly simple and speedy to make. That's because it gives the illusion of having three separate layers; in actual fact it's just a classic crumble mixture pressed into a brownie tin then a scattering of blueberries, which are then sandwiched under another layer of crumble placed on top. |
