Homemade Grapenuts Cereal

"This tasty, healthy cereal is much better than the store bought variety! Plus, it is easy to make, and kids love it!"

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, wheat germ, oats, baking soda, and sugar.
Add buttermilk or yogurt and salt.
Stir until smooth.
Spread in a greased 9"x13" jelly-roll pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden and done. Cool on a wire rack.
When completely cooled, break into chunks.
Whirl in blender or food processor until crumbly.
Spread on two large baking pans and bake at 250 degrees for about 25-30 minutes, or until cereal is very crisp.
Cool on wire racks. Store in an airtight container when completely cool.

What a fun recipe! and so much better than the Grapenuts cereal you buy in the store. I used 1/2 c. brown sugar and it was plenty tasty enough for me. I used buttermilk and also blended the oats down to a course flour which I thought was ideal. My second bake took a little longer to dry my nuts out enough but only about 10 more minutes.
