DIY Breakfast Cereal
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats, wheat, barley and/or rye
- 1 – 10 oz. box Uncle Sam Original cereal*
- 3 cups kamut puffs (or other unsweetened grain puffs)
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup chopped dates (mine came rolled in oat flour)
- ¼ cup almonds, chopped
- ¼ cup hazelnuts, chopped
- 2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds
- 2 Tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread oats on a rimmed baking sheet and toast in oven until fragrant and just beginning to crisp, about 10 minutes. While the oats cool, combine the Uncle Sam cereal, kamut puffs, cranberries, dates, almonds, hazelnuts, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds in a large storage container. Stir gently to avoid crushing the cereal. Incorporate toasted oats, sprinkle with cinnamon and stir again. Store in an airtight container.
*I cheat a little bit on the grains and use Uncle Sam, a packaged cereal. Even though it is packaged, it has very few ingredients, no added sugar and high fiber and nutrients.
