I began making this recipe to save cereal costs for our family of six. Everyone loves the hearty flavor that just can't be found in packaged cereals.
Ingredients:
7 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour
3 cups packed brown sugar
2-1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2-1/2 cups buttermilk
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon maple flavoring, optional
milk
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda and salt. Stir in the buttermilk, butter, vanilla and maple flavoring if desired, until combined. Spread into six greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pans.
2. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes. Cool on wire racks. Reduce heat to 250°. Break mixture into pieces. Cover and process in batches in a food processor until small pieces are formed; return to baking pans. Bake for 1 hour or until light brown and crisp, stirring every 15 minutes. Store in airtight containers. Serve as a cereal with milk. Yield: 5 quarts.
