I had to jump on the cereal trend… not that I was ever off of it. I’m including granola in the cereal category which is truly my weakness. As soon as I start nibbling on it I just can’t stop.
This peanut butter cookie cereal is not quite as crunchy, crispy round the edges, soft in the middle, they melt in your mouth and soak up whatever milk you choose to down them in quite beautifully.
Cereal is just such a childhood favourite. This peanut butter cookie cereal is hunky, chunky and totally just doubles up as a bowl of cookies to snack on as you see fit.
I love how the peanut butter flavour infuses with the milk as the cookies soften up a little down the bottom of my mug or bowl while I make my way through the crunchy pieces piled on top.
I actually kept these pretty chunky but you can totally roll them more thinly, bake for a little less time and have a thinner cereal creation on your hands.
They also work just fine with sunflower seed butter for a nut free version or almond butter if that’s jut more your thing.
