Healthy Homemade Breakfast Cereal Recipes

Healthy Homemade Breakfast Cereal Recipes

After last weekend, I am convinced – more you relax, more tired you feel. In 2 full days, the only useful thing I managed to do was to test this healthy homemade cereal aka cinnamon toast crunch recipe for healthy breakfast ideas.

Again, out of pure selfishness because I am bored to death with oatmeal, quinoa breakfast bake, quinoa granola bars, and quinoa egg muffins.

Healthy

We got this window of opportunity when kids do not have sports for 2 weekends and both, me and Alex, looked at each other and pretty much thought the same: “Screw storage space cleaning, basement repainting and backyard re-sodding. Doing nothing!”.

Homemade Cereal Recipe

I watched all possible episodes of Amazing Race, Flip or Flop and Caribbean Life while browsing my phone, stroking my little one’s hair and eating healthy snacks. I showered by 2 PM and spent evenings on a couch sipping wine and watching heartbreaking “Amy”. We went for a walk to Starbucks and Alex cooked all dinners.

I swear, on Monday morning I felt even more tired than on Friday night WTF. However, I managed to go for a5K run with my 9 year old. I could barely keep up. That hockey makes one hell of strong muscles and lungs, and let me tell you a huge belly too. My last Costco run was $650!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a lousy rule follower because this Easter weekend I’m planning to do the same for at least half of it. I probably should colour some eggs with the kids, buy candy for the Easter egg hunt and make some cake for Saturday night dinner with friends. This is my Easter without fuss and craziness. I just want to stare at my kids every secondI can because they are growing too damn fast!!!

Crunchy Oat Squares

Let’s be clear, I didn’t grow up eating cereal in Ukraine. I was raised on homemade cooked grains and seeds, mixed with milk, butter and sugar. I first tried cinnamon toast crunch at my girlfriend’s house, Jennifer, while visiting a few years ago. That shit was good, I admit! My kids’ eyes like tripled because clearly it is like crack. Their “deprived” tastebuds were in a coma for a whole day I think. I never bought it after and I think Jennifer doesn’t either (right, Jenn?!) because I told her everything I think about toxic cinnamon crunch.

So, this healthy homemade cereal recipe has no toasts in sight in it. The day I hand make hundreds of little squares to eat for breakfast will be the day I turn 60. The same day I will be an owner of a little doggie carrying poop in baggies home for 10 blocks. My healthy cinnamon crunch cereal is more simple than that – made with rolled or quick oats which large surface is coated in maple syrup and cinnamon, toasted in the oven and then dusted with coconut palm sugar.

The idea of using oats came to me after I made quinoa granola. I loved how crunchy rolled oats became after roasting and they were quite large size flakes. The whole idea of making cinnamon flavoured cereal came from one of the walks I smelled cinnamon and Fall spices. That moment I missed Fall dearly although it was like first day of Spring. Cinnamon has crazy health benefitslike blood sugar control and cancer prevention. Organic spices are so good for us and we often neglect that part thinking what a mediocre amount of powder can do?! Let’s eat chicken.

Crunchy Nut Free Keto Cinnamon Cereal

This time I used quick oats because I asked my neighbour to buy me some and that is what she found. I will not complain because I was in bed flipping channels while she was shopping for me (I am developing a major grocery stores intolerance due to my job). So, both kinds of oats are fine. It is just that rolled oats have more nutrition and larger flakes thanquick. For healthy granola they are a must!

DIY

I then added chia seeds and shelled hemp seeds to keep my belly full for more than an hour because we all know cereals don’t do that job well (I love Nature’s Path cereals for kids though because it is real life). I also added nuts which were good for nutrition but kinda dulled the cinnamon taste. So, this time I left them out.

I have read that you are OK to store hemp seeds not refrigerated for up to a year after opening. They won’t lose their nutritional benefits before you eat this delicious superfood cinnamon toast crunch recipe. It was crunchy, cinnamon-y and sweet. You totally get the satisfaction of crunchiness and powder-y tasty coating. And that is how we do it, General Mills! Make organiccinnamon toast crunch and maybe then we can talk!

The Best Keto Cereal Recipe (2g Carbs)

During our travels I discovered that my kids complain less when we have a routine for breakfast.  They will be less likely to fight about what were eating in those early hours if they already know our breakfast routine.  We got into a habit of eating muesli and yogurt, especially while we were in France, so that’s what they came to expect on weekday mornings. On weekends, we would splurge and have pastries or go sit at a cafe for a special meal but weekdays had their system and it was a working one.

As we transitioned from France to Italy, our muesli tradition also had to change.  Museli in Italy was harder to come by and the cereal isle was more like a few boxes of imported sweet cereals.  So, when I spotted a locally made cereal that was also sugar-free I threw several bags into my basket to try.  My kids loved that cereal so much so that I knew I had to recreate it when we got home.  This cereal is a straight copy of that special bag I found at the markets.

I don’t know about you but I grew up on cereal.  And I’m not talking the healthy stuff, but the sweet cinnamon and sugar coated kind.  Now, it’s still a familiar treat for me.  Until now I hadn’t really fed my kids much cereal. Occasionally, we’d buy a box or two but most of them don’t keep my kids full until lunch time.  When we serve this with almond milk or yogurt and some extra fresh berries its more filling and way less sugar-y than what you find on the shelves… but still so fun and satisfying for those cereal cravings.   AND it’s super EASY to make and super CHEAP compared to a box of anything comparable.

Crunchy Breakfast Cereal Recipe: How To Make It

Making homemade cereal, may sound hard, like, ‘don’t I need some special equipment for this??’  But it’s really easy if you just start with simple ingredients like organic cornflakes (check the label for a brand with few ingredients) and puffed kamut (you can buy a huge bag of this at most health food stores). Then all you have to do is mix the ingredients together for your homemade cereal blend.  I like to toast my kamut with a little honey and oil just to lightly sweeten and crisp it up but if you’re low on time just mix it in without adding the honey and toasting.

Kamut is an ancient-grain relative to durham wheat and is more easily digestible than other grains. While kamut is lower in gluten than many other grains it is still not gluten free.  So, if you’re looking for a full gluten-free cereal blend then try using a puffed brown rice.  If you remember the cereal Honey Smacks then you’re familiar with puffed kamut already.

Feel free to get creative with this! I’d love to see your own blends and creations so tag #vintagemixerrecipe on Instagram to share!
