Healthy Charms Cereal with 4 Flavor Variations

September 7, 2011 by Leanne Vogel August 23, 2017

Making your own gluten-free, vegan, high fiber cereal is fun to eat and ends up being easier on your wallet!

Ingredients

Go au naturale

• 1 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoon raisins
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 cup sorghum flour
• 1/4 cup ground flax seed
• 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan rock salt

Or choose your favorite flavor

• maple – replace the honey and 1 tablespoon water with 2 tablespoon maple syrup
• cinnamon – sprinkle with cinnamon before baking
• vanilla – replace 1 tablespoon of water with 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper so that the paper is over the edges and set aside.
2. Place water, raisins, and honey in the bowl of your food processor or blender and process until smooth. Pour into a large bowl and combine with remaining ingredients.
3. Pour batter onto prepared sheet and spread evenly. The key to the cereal’s success is going to be to spread the batter as evenly as possible to ensure even cooking.
4. Bake for 20 minutes, until edges begin to brown and cracks are seen in the batter.
5. Take out of the oven and remove the parchment. Cut the dough into shapes or tiny squares. I used a set similar to this one, or you could do a Christmas themed cereal!
6. Spread the pieces back onto the parchment paper free baking sheet and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes for cut out shapes and 10-15 for larger squares, turning at least once. Cereal should be crisp and crunchy.

Notes

Use brown rice syrup instead of honey to keep this recipe vegan.
