Description

Make delicious homemade cinnamon toast crunch cereal at home with this recipe. I use fresh milled flour but any type will do!


Ingredients

Units Scale

3 cups soft white wheat, finely ground

1 stick cold butter, cubed

1/2 cup maple syrup

1 teaspoon cinnamon

4 TBSP butter, melted

3 teaspoons cinnamon

6 TBSP organic sugar


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Combine flour and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Dice cold butter into cubes and cut into flour with a pastry cutter. When the mixture is grainy and evenly distributed add 1/2 cup of maple syrup. Mix until dough forms. It is a soft dough but shouldn’t be overly sticky. If it is still super sticky, add a little extra flour.

Chill dough for about 10-15 minutes in the refrigerator. In the mean time melt butter. Combine 3 teaspoons of cinnamon and 6 TBSP sugar in a bowl. Rip 2 large sheets of parchment paper.

Remove dough from refrigerator and cut in 2 sections. Take one section and place between sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll dough VERY thin. It won’t get crispy like cereal if its too thick. Remove the top sheet of parchment paper and lightly brush dough with melted butter using a pastry brush. Sprinkle top with cinnamon and sugar. Using a pizza cutter, cut dough into squares.

Place parchment paper on a baking sheet. Bake in oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. The dough should be crispy around the edges and starting to brown. Allow cereal to cool completely and then break apart. Serve like cereal over milk or use as chips for fruit dip, cannoli dip, or with cottage cheese!
