Momofuku Milk Bar Cereal Milk Copycat
Description
The recipe begins by toasting corn flakes in a 300°F oven until crisp and slightly golden, which enhances their sweetness and flavor notes. The toasted flakes are then combined with brown sugar and salt in whole milk, allowing the milk to steep for 20 to 30 minutes to absorb the cereal’s flavor. This creates a subtly sweet, rich milk that mimics the taste of milk left after eating cereal.
After steeping, the mixture is strained through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the flakes to extract as much flavored milk as possible while discarding the solids. The resulting milk is smooth and carries the toasted corn sweetness balanced with a touch of salt and sugar to replicate the iconic cereal milk flavor known from Momofuku Milk Bar.
The milk can be used as a beverage on its own, added to coffee, tea, or recipes that benefit from a sweetened, nostalgic milk flavor. It stores well in the refrigerator for up to one week.
