This cinnamon crunch cereal is a mix between granola and a cereal. It has no nuts or seeds, just simple ingredients you most likely have on hand. To create it’s texture I divided the oats in half and pulsed half of them into a flour – that helps it’s bind better into delicious cinnamon clumps. To bind it I used egg whites which make pieces stick together and also give it more crunch.
It’s perfect for days you just want a big bowl of cereal with milk, want something crunchy to top a smoothie bowl or just want a crunchy cinnamon snack. It’s addictivley delicious.
