CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH CEREAL

Ingredients:

-1 cup oat flour

-1/4 cup almond flour

-2 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar

-1 tsp cinnamon

-1/4 tsp salt

-2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil

-2 tbsp maple syrup

-1 tsp vanilla extract

-2-3 tbsp water (if needed to help the dough come together)

-1 tbsp raw cane sugar + 1 tsp cinnamon to sprinkle

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Add water as needed to help bind the dough together, but don’t add too much so the dough is wet! Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out into a thin, even layer (about 1/8 inch thick). Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the dough into small squares (about 1/2 inch). Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, mix the coconut sugar and ground cinnamon for the coating. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cut dough. ake in the preheated oven for 12-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cereal is crisp. Allow the cereal to cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cool, break apart any pieces that may have stuck together. Store in an airtight container.

... Read moreIf you're looking for creative ways to enjoy your homemade Cinnamon Toast Crunch beyond just cereal, you can sprinkle it over yogurt or smoothie bowls for added texture and flavor. This recipe is versatile; try swapping maple syrup for agave nectar or honey if you prefer different natural sweeteners. When it comes to storage, keeping the cereal in an airtight container is key to maintaining its crispness over several days. For those sensitive to nuts, you can substitute almond flour with sunflower seed flour or more oat flour, but keep an eye on the dough consistency and add water gradually. Also, feel free to experiment with spice blends—adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom can add exciting new dimensions to the flavor profile. Preparing this cereal yourself lets you control the sugar and fat content, making it a fantastic healthier alternative to store-bought sugary cereals. Pairing your homemade cereal with your favorite plant-based milk makes a complete vegan breakfast, and it’s a fun project to make with kids who will love cutting the dough into squares. Enjoy your nutritious, homemade cinnamon cereal fresh and crisp anytime you crave a nostalgic breakfast treat.
