Today we’re talking breakfast… again 😉
And I’m not just sharing one recipe… I’ve got 3!
Remember when I wrote about making cereal and some recipes I wanted to try last week? Well I did in fact make some! Two flavors of chickpea and millet based cereal. Cocoa and cinnamon sugar.
Some notes on cereal making:
Use a large pan so you can get your batter nice n thin. I used 2 different sizes and my cocoa ones came out a bit thicker and less crunchy.
I’ve actually just enjoyed munching on it as a cracker more than cereal. They’re both might tasty.
Cocoa Chickpea Cereal
Adapted from cinnamon sugar toastIngredients
- 1/2 cup garbanzo/fava bean flour
- 1/2 cup millet flour (can be made by grinding whole millet)
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 2 tbsp natural cane sugar, divided
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder, divided
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add flours, oil, salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of cocoa and vanilla. Add water. Whisk until completely smooth.
- Pour batter onto lined cookie sheet and spread batter evenly to each edge of the sheet. Sprinkle with remaining sugar and cocoa.
- Bake for 22-27 minutes, until edges are starting to brown and center is just starting to crack.
- Remove parchment from sheet and cut the cereal into 1-inch squares.Spread the squares back onto the unlined sheet and bake for an additional 2-4 minutes, turning at least once. Cereal should be crisp and crunchy.

CINNAMON ROLL custard oats?! Oh girl, you’ve got me sold! 😀
How creative! I love it!
The cinnamon roll oats look wonderful! I haven’t had oatmeal all week. I think I’ll make some for the morning!! The cereal looks great to. I love eating cereal by the handful, rather then in milk.
