Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Grape-Nuts cereal
- 1 cup Milk (or milk alternative)
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Butter (optional)
- Fresh fruit or nuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the Grape-Nuts cereal and milk (or milk alternative).
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir occasionally to prevent the cereal from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once the mixture begins to warm, stir in the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.
Continue to cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the cereal has softened and the mixture is heated through.
If desired, stir in the butter for extra richness and flavor.
Pour the hot cereal into a bowl and top with fresh fruit, nuts, or additional toppings of your choice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, comforting breakfast!
