Last night I made a big batch of this homemade multigrain cereal and put it in the freezer to stay fresh! I cannot explain in words the fabulous aroma that was coming out of my microwave while this was cooking, what a delicious thing to wake up to! If you love hot ceral and oats, you have got to try this recipe!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup quick-cooking barley (I just used regular barely to make my cereal a bit chewier)
- 1 cup bulgar
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Combine all ingredients in large bowl and mix well. Store in airtight container at room temperature or in freezer (where it will last longer). Microwave 1/3 cup cereal with 3/4 cup water for 8 minutes and enjoy! I topped mine with half of a banana, yum!
