WOW - I love this. It is perfect for us and our family. Thank you. I follow you faithfully. For the past 5 years, I have studied nutrition and the effects of processed foods at length as I have been fighting cancer. I concur with everything you say. My cancer was late stage and the prognosis was very poor. Upon the diagnosis and after chemo and surgery, I switched to a whole new diet with organic foods, kefir, sourdough bread, whole grains, clean fruits and veggies, etc. I avoid processed foods, bad oils, genetically modified foods etc. It has now been 5 years and I am in remission. This is miraculous. I truly believe that my diet is helping. Keep up the good work. You inspire and help so many.
This was my first attempt at sprouting, dehydrating, and milling sprouted grain, not to mention making flaked cereal Everything went very well. I started with 3 cups of hard white wheat berries. When I reached the milling stage, 3 cups of unsprouted wheat berries (once sprouted and dehydrated) yielded 2 cups of flour after milling. I used a stand mixer grain mill attachment, set on the finest setting. Even on the fine setting, the flour is slightly more coarse than store-bought whole grain flour. Next, I had to improvise a bit on mixing the cereal dough. I cut your recipe in half, so I added 1 cup of store-bought whole wheat flour to the 2 cups of sprouted wheat flour. I did not have enough honey, so I added what I had on hand--a large pinch of brown sugar. Additionally, I only had 2% milk and half the yogurt needed. I compensated (guessing) by adding heavy whipping cream). Once mixed, the dough seemed to be the right hydration. Then, I elected to go with the longer, refrigerator, absorption stage, since I was a short on the yogurt. Finally, I made a real effort to roll the dough very thin. The results paid off in a wheat flakes cereal that tasted just terrific and with all the crunch you could want. Final notes: while process is quite an endeavor, next time I am going to scale everything up and plan on baking in stages THANKS MARY!
Oh Lisa!! I am so happy to hear this. I have more homemade cereal videos coming up over the next few months that I think you will also enjoy! Stay tuned! ;-) Love, Mary
I been looking for cereal without chemicals for years. I decided to check TH-cam. And I found you. I was so happy. I just want some cereal I can add fruit and clusters to.
I’ve watched dozens of your videos. I’ve wondered how you learned so much about nutrition. Have you taken classes or just a lot of research. My mind is completely on overload trying to retain much of your valuable information.
Great video! I enjoy learning about the science and chemistry of food - phylic acid and fermentation. I watched another video on TH-cam that sourced studies which show that vinegars reduce the glycemic index of sugars and help to regulate insulin in healthy people so this process probably helps with that too, making this cereal much healthier than store bought. **Walking away to get out the rolled oats, stevia, and Greek yogurt.** Thank you Mary!😂
I used to make homemade Grape Nuts to eat with yogurt when my kids were small. I hope to give this a try when Christmas baking is over with. Thank you!
Thank you so much Mary for this super recipe. I did not even think that you could do it at home. You are great making everything at home. I have a question can I use almond flour to do this recipe or it will not work? I love everything you do.👍👍❤❤❤
My kids were so happy this showed up in my TH-cam feed. We don't eat a lot of cereal. It is so expensive and we finally found Azure which is a great place to get cheap gluten free flours. We are tried this with Masa Harina (kinda like corn flour) and a 1/4 cup coconut sugar. It was tasty. We also tried Buckwheat but it took a lot of modifications like 2 more cups and 1 cup of coconut. It came out very dense, a real arm workout. I think I'm going to have to continue to modify it, but it was tasty. Thanks Mary!
Wow, I love your video's but don't always learn alot, but this was brand new for me!!! Thank you thank you! I think I will try making graham cracker cereal!
This is astonishing. ✨🙉✨ Somehow I landed at EXACTLY the kind of video I'd wanted to find (on a total long shot, just searched for 'make your own dry cereal') -- hoping to make cereal that avoids the extrusion process, and is more nutrient-dense. ~ ~And here you are, the angel of my dry cereal dreams!! How did this even happen~?? 😍 Thank you for being here, and for making this video! Dang, you bet I'm subscribing!! 😸 (--man, and now you're talking about phytic acid & all, even? How did this happen? Where did you come from? 🤗)
Is there anything you cant do Mary!lol.This is so interesting.Your knowledge is never ending and I'm so thankful.Im learning so much.God bless you for sharing all of this information.I love you sweet Mary.🤗♥️🙏
Mary, you're the only one I know who knows more about healthful cooking than I. Thank you SO much for this recipe. I love my Ancient Grains cereal but couldn't rationalize forking out the money any more. Now I can gather my own combination of ancient grains and make my own. Merry Christmas, Mary.
Hi Julian, You are very generous but I suspect you are more knowledgeable than me about healthful cooking. So glad you're here!! Merry Christmas!! Love, Mary
Hi Mary and Friends Merry Christmas! If you like it less crunchy the thinner you roll the dough the crisper it will be. Thank you for sharing your recipes with us💞
This is wonderful! Do you know how to make frosted corn flakes? They are my favorite cereal in the world. Who would think with all the cereal choices frosted cornflakes would be my favorite! So weird!!!
You can make these using cornmeal but frosting...hmmm...that I'm not sure about. Might just have to give a sprinkling of your favorite sweetener! Love, Mary
Whaaaat?!😲 Cereal?! That's crazy! Crazy amazing! 😁 I like to munch on cereal or granola in front of the TV so I'll be giving this a try. Thank you, Mary!💜
Thanks Mary... Just the kick in the butt I needed.... I've been thinking of making cereal again as I used to make for my daughter as she could not have processed food or sugar. I used to add cocoa and or extracts as well.
Mary, week after week you amaze me. I'm always so excited when I see a video pop up for me to watch, my mornings with Mary. I've made granola before, but flaked cereal is something else, never in a my life time would I have thought of that. I just bought a box of raisin bran, what kind of flour/base would I do for that? Just the same recipe here, then add raisins. I don't know exactly how you come up with this stuff but I love it! I can't bear the day you can't think of something new, we will all be disappointed. Hopefully that day will never come. 😉 Your sister from another mother, Charlotte
Hi Charlotte, great idea! Yes, you can make bran flakes. What you want to do is for every 2 cups of flour and one cup of bran. So if you make my whole recipe that would mean 4 cups of flour and 2 cups of bran. That will make bran flakes. Keep me posted on how it turns out. And thank you so much for all the kind words!Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Mary you are such a blessing! I have been wanting to do this for a while now. Store bought cereal is so processed! With all the milk we have cereal is almost a necessity lol! I just wasn’t comfortable with the over processing. Loved how you explained phytic acid🤗. I will be making this for sure! Thank you so much for all you do! God bless you sweet friend!❤️
Hi Jackie!! Thank you so much for the kind words!! This is such a fun project and it turns out so tasty and crunchy!! Hope you are all doing well!! Love, Mary
Mary you are so wonderful and knowledgeable. You have taught me a lot. Thank you. Can i make these with no yogurt? Just use water and lemon juice or apple cider vinegar?
Hi Mary ! another great video. I wanted to ask about soaking, just to be sure. Grains, nuts, beans & seeds, so i guess there is really no need ??? Please let me know. Thanks for all you do !
I make a biscuit/cookie thing and for flavoring I use a couple packets of Orange crush drink mix . That's why I'm here I want to make a cereal with the orange or 7up mix . Orange is best . I use it to make a oatmeal just a bowl of oatmeal ad a 1/2 packet of the orange crush mix then ad enough water to wet all the oatmeal plus more a wet loose mix refrigerate over night and you have a extremely sweet breakfast food. I have a mother with later stage dementia and getting her to eat enough is a challenge . Basically all she will eat is cheeseburgers and oatmeal or anything sweet. Picture a finicky 5 year old. She would gladly eat the oatmeal 3 time.s a day every day. But we went through a rough year or so oatmeal was sometimes difficult to find. I paid $9!for a tube of oatmeal. But I need a backup if oatmeal becomes difficult to find again.
OH MARY, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS , IF YOU DON'T MIND. CAN I STORE RAISINS IN THE FRIDGE TO MAKE MY OWN RAISIN BRAN ? HOW DO I MAKE THE BRAN OR FLAKES ?
Hi Jeni, Thank YOU! And those are great questions. Yes, you can store this in the fridge and yes you can make raisin bran. Adjust the recipe to 4 cups of whole wheat flour and 2 cups of wheat bran. Once baked and broken into pieces, mix in your raisins and you're all set! Love, Mary
I LOVE bran cereal as a topping for whole yogurt that I've swirled some of my own jam into. I wonder if you have a suggestion for turning this into bran cereal flakes?
I made your crock pot bone broth this weekend and it was deliciously gelatinous! I also just downloaded your 36 page prepping document! Great information! Thank you!! Do you have a playlist on how to transition to traditional foods *for beginners*?? Thanks so much!!
Hi Miss Mandy, So happy this is all working out for you! See if this playlist helps: th-cam.com/play/PLkRuW3pBo2U3b4eu0QraZReKlGzA11h3y.html Love, Mary
Hi Mary, love this video! If I wanted to add bran would that be what is left when I sieve part of my ehole wheat flour to make my baked goods lighter? Thanks! God bless
Hi Melody, Yes - you are sifting out bran and germ and both can be added to the flour to make a "bran" cereal. For every two cups of whole grain flour, add 1 cups of what you have sifted out from other flour. So for this recipe if you use all 6 cups of flour, you would decrease the flour to 4 cups and add 2 cups of your siftings (bran and germ) and you will make a nice bran cereal. Love, Mary
Hello friend, Last summer my TV was blown out in a lightening storm. Not being able to replace it yet, I turned to you tube like never before and the ads were driving me nuts. I broke down and got the Premium for 11 a month. I am saving $ because I don't have to pay an expensive dish bill and watching you tube ad free is now a wonderful experience.😄❤️🍏
Thank you Sweet Mary! I’m guessing this tastes a bit like Wheaties? Well an unsweetened version. It seems as if the cinnamon in this is extremely mild. As someone who has recently become pre-diabetic and who is missing cinnamon cereals I presume I can add considerably more cinnamon? Do you know how long the cereal might last if kept in an airtight container? Or should the cereal be kept in the fridge since it doesn’t have preservatives?
Great question. I definitely think you can add more cinnamon. This stays fresh in an airtight container for about 2 weeks or so but you can certainly put it in the fridge to extend its shelf life. Love, Mary
I have a commercial dehydrator. Can I use that instead of the oven? I am not sure if the oven is just for dehydration or is their some kind of cooking necessary?
Hi Richard, This is a very interesting question. I have not tried making this in a dehydrator but it would be interesting to try. Maybe make half the recipe - or even less - and experiment with this idea. Love, Mary
Love your videos. Can I use almond milk to replace full fat milk? Also, looking back to some of the no-knead breads, can I make them with gluten-free flour?
Yes, you can use almond milk to replace the full fat milk but add a bit of lemon juice or raw apple cider vinegar. As to the no knead breads - I have never made them with gluten free flour so I can't say. Love, Mary
Hi Mary, Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. Can I put cocoa powder in the flour mixture for make for my kids? They love chocolate cereals but I don't buy frequently because the store bought isn't healthy. 😘
Hello, I'm certainly not Mary, but I believe that 100 percent cacao or cocoa powder is fine, it's the amount of sugar needed to sweeten it to make it edible that is the problem. Perhaps use sucanat, date sugar, coconut sugar, or honey or molasses or Stevia. You would still have sugar calories but at least you would get some healthy vitamins and minerals along with the chocolate flavor😇💕

Hi Mary. What flour to use if you are coliec or gluten intolerance?
WOW - I love this. It is perfect for us and our family. Thank you. I follow you faithfully. For the past 5 years, I have studied nutrition and the effects of processed foods at length as I have been fighting cancer. I concur with everything you say.

Wow!! Janine!! This is wonderful news. Thank you so much for sharing your prognosis with me. Keep up the great work! Love, Mary
So happy for you and your recovery process. My health too is poor. I need to follow your path as it is the path of health. Thank you for sharing,😇💜❤️
You ALL ways answer the questions I have.
Ha'Shem bless and keep you Mary.
Shalom.
Hi Mary, So happy to hear this. And sending blessings your way too! Love, Mary
I never thought you could make your own cereal. That's amazing. So glad I found you on TH-cam.
Welcome! So glad you're here!! Love, Mary
Can I piggy back off your exact words?😍❤️💛💛🥕
This was my first attempt at sprouting, dehydrating, and milling sprouted grain, not to mention making flaked cereal Everything went very well. I started with 3 cups of hard white wheat berries. When I reached the milling stage, 3 cups of unsprouted wheat berries (once sprouted and dehydrated) yielded 2 cups of flour after milling. I used a stand mixer grain mill attachment, set on the finest setting. Even on the fine setting, the flour is slightly more coarse than store-bought whole grain flour.
Next, I had to improvise a bit on mixing the cereal dough. I cut your recipe in half, so I added 1 cup of store-bought whole wheat flour to the 2 cups of sprouted wheat flour. I did not have enough honey, so I added what I had on hand--a large pinch of brown sugar. Additionally, I only had 2% milk and half the yogurt needed. I compensated (guessing) by adding heavy whipping cream). Once mixed, the dough seemed to be the right hydration.
Then, I elected to go with the longer, refrigerator, absorption stage, since I was a short on the yogurt.
Finally, I made a real effort to roll the dough very thin. The results paid off in a wheat flakes cereal that tasted just terrific and with all the crunch you could want.
Final notes: while process is quite an endeavor, next time I am going to scale everything up and plan on baking in stages
THANKS MARY!
Cereal is a weakness of mine!!! I try to stay away from it because it's so processed...this is perfect!!! 💜💜😋
Oh Lisa!! I am so happy to hear this. I have more homemade cereal videos coming up over the next few months that I think you will also enjoy! Stay tuned! ;-) Love, Mary
Hi my sweet friend. You know how to do everything. I didn't know this was even possible. it is so interesting
Hi Janie, Thanks so much for the kind words. This is a fun project and quite tasty! Hope you are having a great week! Love, Mary
Hi Mary I’m gluten intolerant can you please make a video how to make corn flakes. Your way of describing is very good. ❤
I been looking for cereal without chemicals for years. I decided to check TH-cam. And I found you. I was so happy. I just want some cereal I can add fruit and clusters to.
Money saving healthy eatting
The best combination ever❤️
I love that you make real food. Thank you!
Hi Robert, Glad you enjoy these videos! Love, Mary
Thank you for giving us other options especially for us that are vegan
Watching your videos make me feel like a Titus 2 disciple. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge. God bless!
I’ve watched dozens of your videos. I’ve wondered how you learned so much about nutrition. Have you taken classes or just a lot of research. My mind is completely on overload trying to retain much of your valuable information.

I love how you smile and cook at the same time keep it up thanks for making videos ❤
Mary, thank you so much!! I enjoy your videos and positive encouragement. You are a gifted teacher.
Oh Kristin!! Thank you SO much for the kind words!! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Miss Mary, I mill my own grain and wondered if I could use hard red or hard white wheat grain instead of Einkorn wheat? Thank you.
You are giving me Mrs. Claus vibes and I love it. You taught me so much in this short video. I can't wait to learn more!
I used to make homemade Grape Nuts to eat with yogurt when my kids were small. I hope to give this a try when Christmas baking is over with. Thank you!
Hi Kristyn, Oh my goodness! Yes, I remember Grape Nuts - and making them homemade when my son was small too! Glad you’ll give this a try!! Love, Mary
OMG Can you oust the recipe? Grape Nuts is one of my all time favs 😍❤️💕
Oh, my! My 50 pound box of Einkorn arrived Monday so I will grind some of that to make this recipe. Thank you!
Wonderful!❤️🤗❤️
Wow!😮😊 I can't wait to make this!
Thank you.
Thanks so much for teaching me how to do this. I'm tired of over paying and ingrediance I can't pronounce. I'm going to try this.😘
Thank you so much Mary for this super recipe. I did not even think that you could do it at home. You are great making everything at home. I have a question can I use almond flour to do this recipe or it will not work? I love everything you do.👍👍❤❤❤

Wow, actual cereal. I have to try making this! Ingenious!
Hope you enjoy!
A Danish dough whisk would be great for mixing the wet ingredients into the flour.
Thanks for the explanation in the beginning 🙏 god bless you, take care of yourself
I've made granola before. I never imagined I could make flake cereal. TY
Buttermilk works great.
You are a 💎! Thank you for sharing😊

You are a wonderful teacher Mary :) Thank You for all your videos :)
Such clear instructions. Thank you
Thank you for sharing. This is awesome.
Hi Denice, Thank you! So happy to hear that you like this idea! Love, Mary
How about using corn meal for a corn based cereal? I love my corn flakes
I want to know this too!
What a great idea!! I haven't tried but I think it would work!! Love, Mary
This is fantastic! I'm definitely going to try this. Awesome that this is also another way to use whey!
Whey not?
I always enjoy watching by your videos
I have learned so much from you & look forward to all of your videos!! Thank you, thank you & thank you!!
Hi Shannon, thank you so much for the kind words! So happy you are enjoying my videos. Love, Mary

You're welcome!
Thanks for sharing. Daniel loves them but gets bored of foods so I could switch up the flavors. I love to add dried fruit and nuts to mine.
Great idea!
Mary, you're the only one I know who knows more about healthful cooking than I. Thank you SO much for this recipe. I love my Ancient Grains cereal but couldn't rationalize forking out the money any more. Now I can gather my own combination of ancient grains and make my own. Merry Christmas, Mary.
Hi Julian, You are very generous but I suspect you are more knowledgeable than me about healthful cooking. So glad you're here!! Merry Christmas!! Love, Mary
Hi Mary and Friends Merry Christmas! If you like it less crunchy the thinner you roll the dough the crisper it will be.
Thank you for sharing your recipes with us💞
Thanks for the tip!
Do you think it would work if almond, rice or oat flour?? I have Celiac Disease and cannot eat wheat, rye or barley. Thanks.
This is wonderful! Do you know how to make frosted corn flakes? They are my favorite cereal in the world. Who would think with all the cereal choices frosted cornflakes would be my favorite! So weird!!!
You can make these using cornmeal but frosting...hmmm...that I'm not sure about. Might just have to give a sprinkling of your favorite sweetener! Love, Mary
Hi Mary, not that it matters in the scheme of things, but have you ever tried scoring the dough before you bake it?
That's a great idea - and it would probably bake up faster. I'll try that next time. Love, Mary
Wonderful idea😁❤️😍🧡😃💜😋‼️
This was very informative. Not sure if I would make it, do to the labour of it all, but nice to have the recipe. Thank you!
Whaaaat?!😲 Cereal?! That's crazy! Crazy amazing! 😁
I like to munch on cereal or granola in front of the TV so I'll be giving this a try.
Thank you, Mary!💜
Wonderful!
Hi Mary do you think I could use almond flour or coconut flour to make it gluten free?
Great question. I think it would work but I would start with a smaller batch and see how you like it. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
I love your videos! mary your the best! Thank you
Thanks Mary... Just the kick in the butt I needed.... I've been thinking of making cereal again as I used to make for my daughter as she could not have processed food or sugar. I used to add cocoa and or extracts as well.
Hope this recipe helps! ❤️😘❤️
Mary, week after week you amaze me. I'm always so excited when I see a video pop up for me to watch, my mornings with Mary. I've made granola before, but flaked cereal is something else, never in a my life time would I have thought of that. I just bought a box of raisin bran, what kind of flour/base would I do for that? Just the same recipe here, then add raisins. I don't know exactly how you come up with this stuff but I love it! I can't bear the day you can't think of something new, we will all be disappointed. Hopefully that day will never come. 😉
Your sister from another mother, Charlotte
Hi Charlotte, great idea! Yes, you can make bran flakes. What you want to do is for every 2 cups of flour and one cup of bran. So if you make my whole recipe that would mean 4 cups of flour and 2 cups of bran. That will make bran flakes. Keep me posted on how it turns out. And thank you so much for all the kind words!Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
Interesting project!
It is!
Thank You
You are so welcome! Love, Mary
Mary you are such a blessing! I have been wanting to do this for a while now. Store bought cereal is so processed! With all the milk we have cereal is almost a necessity lol! I just wasn’t comfortable with the over processing. Loved how you explained phytic acid🤗. I will be making this for sure! Thank you so much for all you do! God bless you sweet friend!❤️
Hi Jackie!! Thank you so much for the kind words!! This is such a fun project and it turns out so tasty and crunchy!! Hope you are all doing well!! Love, Mary
Another informative video!
Hi Thomas! Thanks so much. Glad you found it helpful. Love, Mary
Mary you are so wonderful and knowledgeable. You have taught me a lot. Thank you. Can i make these with no yogurt? Just use water and lemon juice or apple cider vinegar?
I envy you your energy to do things like this.
Yup, we are about same age and I can barely lift a finger. I give you so much credit.😍❤️💜‼️
Hi Mary ! another great video. I wanted to ask about soaking, just to be sure. Grains, nuts, beans & seeds, so i guess there is really no need ??? Please let me know. Thanks for all you do !
Glad I addressed soaking! Love, Mary
I make a biscuit/cookie thing and for flavoring I use a couple packets of Orange crush drink mix . That's why I'm here I want to make a cereal with the orange or 7up mix . Orange is best . I use it to make a oatmeal just a bowl of oatmeal ad a 1/2 packet of the orange crush mix then ad enough water to wet all the oatmeal plus more a wet loose mix refrigerate over night and you have a extremely sweet breakfast food. I have a mother with later stage dementia and getting her to eat enough is a challenge . Basically all she will eat is cheeseburgers and oatmeal or anything sweet. Picture a finicky 5 year old. She would gladly eat the oatmeal 3 time.s a day every day. But we went through a rough year or so oatmeal was sometimes difficult to find. I paid $9!for a tube of oatmeal. But I need a backup if oatmeal becomes difficult to find again.
So cool can’t wait to try
Hi Teresa, Wonderful! It's lots of fun and is actually quite tasty! Love, Mary
OH MARY, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS , IF YOU DON'T MIND. CAN I STORE RAISINS IN THE FRIDGE TO MAKE MY OWN RAISIN BRAN ? HOW DO I MAKE THE BRAN OR FLAKES ?
Hi Jeni, Thank YOU! And those are great questions. Yes, you can store this in the fridge and yes you can make raisin bran. Adjust the recipe to 4 cups of whole wheat flour and 2 cups of wheat bran. Once baked and broken into pieces, mix in your raisins and you're all set! Love, Mary
@@MarysNest HONEY , YOU ARE THE BEST. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Can you mix a variety of flour?
FoodTech101 ( video from two years ago) has a video about how to make homemade rice crispies from par boiled rice. Very interesting!
Miss Mary, you are so talented! I have learned so much from you! You are a treasure, I wish you would move to East Texas and be my neighbor 🤗
I LOVE bran cereal as a topping for whole yogurt that I've swirled some of my own jam into. I wonder if you have a suggestion for turning this into bran cereal flakes?
Hi Mary, Definitely - just use 4 cups of whole wheat flour and 2 cups of wheat bran. Love, Mary
You're sheer genius my dear.I am going to also add some wheat germ!😙🐰💕❤️🍏
Could sourdough starter be used as the acidic element?
I made your crock pot bone broth this weekend and it was deliciously gelatinous! I also just downloaded your 36 page prepping document! Great information! Thank you!! Do you have a playlist on how to transition to traditional foods *for beginners*?? Thanks so much!!
Hi Miss Mandy, So happy this is all working out for you! See if this playlist helps: th-cam.com/play/PLkRuW3pBo2U3b4eu0QraZReKlGzA11h3y.html Love, Mary
Hi Mary, love this video! If I wanted to add bran would that be what is left when I sieve part of my ehole wheat flour to make my baked goods lighter? Thanks! God bless
Hi Melody, Yes - you are sifting out bran and germ and both can be added to the flour to make a "bran" cereal. For every two cups of whole grain flour, add 1 cups of what you have sifted out from other flour. So for this recipe if you use all 6 cups of flour, you would decrease the flour to 4 cups and add 2 cups of your siftings (bran and germ) and you will make a nice bran cereal. Love, Mary
Excellent idea😋❤️🍏🥕
Love your channel 🙏🏻😊❤️
Thank you so much!
Can you use corn flour so it’s like corn flakes
I can't wait to try this recipe!!! (So many ads i almost gave up watching) Look forward to your next video!
Hello friend, Last summer my TV was blown out in a lightening storm. Not being able to replace it yet, I turned to you tube like never before and the ads were driving me nuts. I broke down and got the Premium for 11 a month. I am saving $ because I don't have to pay an expensive dish bill and watching you tube ad free is now a wonderful experience.😄❤️🍏
Can you use kefir?
Defintiely!
@@MarysNest Thank you! 🙂🙂
Can you use ALL kefir instead of the milk/yoghurt? I have an abundance of kefir!
Fantastic 👏🌷
Amazing!
Thank you Sweet Mary! I’m guessing this tastes a bit like Wheaties? Well an unsweetened version. It seems as if the cinnamon in this is extremely mild. As someone who has recently become pre-diabetic and who is missing cinnamon cereals I presume I can add considerably more cinnamon?
Do you know how long the cereal might last if kept in an airtight container? Or should the cereal be kept in the fridge since it doesn’t have preservatives?
Great question. I definitely think you can add more cinnamon. This stays fresh in an airtight container for about 2 weeks or so but you can certainly put it in the fridge to extend its shelf life. Love, Mary
I have a commercial dehydrator. Can I use that instead of the oven? I am not sure if the oven is just for dehydration or is their some kind of cooking necessary?
Hi Richard, This is a very interesting question. I have not tried making this in a dehydrator but it would be interesting to try. Maybe make half the recipe - or even less - and experiment with this idea. Love, Mary
Can you substitute the yogurt for something else?
Hi sweet Mary, I was wondering whether I could use oat flour in this recipe
Can you substitute some malt barley flour for flavor?
Definitely!🤗
Love your videos. Can I use almond milk to replace full fat milk? Also, looking back to some of the no-knead breads, can I make them with gluten-free flour?
Yes, you can use almond milk to replace the full fat milk but add a bit of lemon juice or raw apple cider vinegar. As to the no knead breads - I have never made them with gluten free flour so I can't say. Love, Mary
Eager to try this. Question: does thickness you roll out remain same thickness as it bakes or does it shrink down or puff up any?
Hi Joy, Great question. It basically stays the same thickness. Love, Mary
Hi... can I add cocoa powder in it?
Hi Mary, Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. Can I put cocoa powder in the flour mixture for make for my kids? They love chocolate cereals but I don't buy frequently because the store bought isn't healthy. 😘
Hello, I'm certainly not Mary, but I believe that 100 percent cacao or cocoa powder is fine, it's the amount of sugar needed to sweeten it to make it edible that is the problem. Perhaps use sucanat, date sugar, coconut sugar, or honey or molasses or Stevia. You would still have sugar calories but at least you would get some healthy vitamins and minerals along with the chocolate flavor😇💕
@@lapismosi8065 Thanks 😘
