Ingredients
- 3 cups puffed barley
- 1 cup oats whole old fashioned or steal cut
- 1 cup TVP
- 2 tablespoons Flax Seed whole or ground
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1/2 cup sliced / whole unsalted almonds
- 4 egg whites
- 1/4 - 1/3 cup agave
- 1 - 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- pinch of kosher salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg whites and sweetener.
- Add to dry ingredients and mix very well, ensuring all is coated with egg whites. The egg whites act as a binder which is what gives you the crispy nuggets of goodness.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and add mixture in an even layer.
- Bake in middle rack for 12 - 15 minutes (check for crispy level), then remove from oven and flip cereal. Here is where you'll have large chunks - flip them but ensure that you rearrange so that it lies flat again to the baking pan.
- Bake for another 10-13 minutes.
- Cool and then store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Nutritional value is approximate based upon 1 cup serving.
- Storage
- Storage
- Store in an airtight container for 2-4 weeks.
- Substitutions
- Substitutions
- Oats: Whole or steal cut are great for this recipe.
- Nuts: Add your favorite (unsalted) nuts!
- TVP: Can't find it or don't want to use it? No problem, swap this out for more oats.
- Agave: Use your favorite all-natural sweetener.
- Egg Whites: Use 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed +6 tablespoons warm water. Stir it vigorously together and then let it rest for 5 minutes before using.
- Adjust the Sweetness
- Adjust the Sweetness
- Use a little more of your natural sweetener or choice to add a little more sweetness to the cereal. We find that 1/4 of a cup is enough to mimic the boxed cereal, but if you want it sweeter, use as much as 1/3-1/2 cup.
