Cereal prices have been outrageous, which is why I quit spending my grocery budget on them and started making my own homemade versions that are cheaper, better tasting and cost pennies to make!

If you want to learn how easy it is to make your own raisin bran, corn flakes, grape nuts, cinnamon toast crunch and rice crispies, this is the video for you!

    Whoa! Cassandra makes her own cereal too? She is literally on another level of homemaking and homesteading.

    Girl! This video totally floored me! My boyfriend and I sat down in front of the TV (with our doughnuts) and saw your video and I told my boyfriend, "If she makes her own flakes...I'll watch it...but, I bet she BUYS the flakes and just adds raisins!" I couldn't believe you actually MADE flakes! After seeing that, I wasn't enjoying my doughnut anymore! lol See, cereal has always been such a temptation for us. We eat cereal in the morning for breakfast, after dinner as a desert, as a midnight snack, and many times as a meal. Anytime we try to start eating right, it's cereal, every time, that brings us down because it's so hard to give up! This is a game changer! I can't tell you how thankful I am to you for making this video! I told my boyfriend, "A man must know he's got a good wife if she makes her own cereal?!" And he said, "Oh yeah, I bet he brags on her to all his friends at work!" Thank you so much for sharing your cereal recipes!

    Why WHY have I never thought of this! I have avoided buying cereal for so long 😩 because I don't want my kids having those yuk chemicals in their little bodies. I'm so doing this. Thank you!
  • Just found this video and channel. I do have a tip for cornflakes. Use masa flour with a pinch of salt and enough water to make as a thin pancake/crepe batter. Pour into a jelly roll pan and bake at 350*F for about 30 minutes or until cooked through and dry. Remove and cool. Break into flake. Note if you want them sweet. Add a little of your favorite sweetener to the batter mix before baking.
  • As a mexican, I don't think the totopos are close to Corn Flakes. I bet Corn Flakes are made with sweet corn, while corn flour is made with white corn, which is what we consume here in Mexico (white corn is used in the USA as animal feed). I wonder if there is corn flour made out of sweet corn... Venezuelans use a different kind of corn flower known as "Harina Pan" (don't ask), which is quite yellowish; they use it for their arepas. I still see your recipe for alt-corn flakes worth a try. I loved your tortilla press, we use them all the time over here, and the design hasn't changed for a long time, probably a century! The really vintage ones are made out of wood. Here's an idea: instead of making a tortilla, what about adding more water to the mix and make a kind of corn creppe, then fry that? Finally the one that really surprised me was the puffed rice... man, what a money grab are Rice Krispes... I have removed "cereals" from my diet for some time now, but I may try some of these ideas just for fun. Amazing video, congrats.

    It’s so funny that we have basically been bamboozled into buying store bought stuff that isn’t healthy for us. Who knew that making cereal was so easy! Thank you for this video! ❤❤
  • @Gammiemar10s
    Okay. I just started my second batch, and have doubled it! That’s right…Two of my large cookie sheets in my oven, right now, wafting out the most amazing scent of home made grape nuts! I made my first batch yesterday, but my honey and I have eaten it, already 😂. Yes, lunch and dinner! Gluten tears me up, but this nummy? Oooooh! Thank you for sharing your recipes! Rice krispies is next on my to do list. God bless you! Jesus is King 👑

    You have just saved our family a ton of money!!!!!!!!!!! Our grandson who has Autism is a very, very picky eater and cereal is his favorite breakfast meals. I really believe he is going to love helping make his own version of cinnamon toast crunch. Thank you from every part of my heart for sharing your awesome homemaking skills with us.
  • Every once in a while, YouTube gets something right. This was the first time your channel has been recommended to me and I will definitely be watching more.
  • @destiny8881
    I never knew making homemade cereal was so easy. I stopped buying cereal years ago because of the price and the fact that half of the bag is just air. Thank you for this video I will definitely make my own cereal from now on.
  • @KR-xh4wn
    You had me until the corn flakes. I kept thinking “isn’t this just broken tortilla chips?” 😂. But seriously these recipes sound amazing. I can’t wait to try the Raisin Bran and grape nuts recipes! Thank you!
  • @Rpol_404
    Thanks a bunch Cassandra. I hope it’s not too late to give a comment, but I tried the grape nut’s recipe today. It turned out really good, but I wanted to share a couple of things. 1) I don’t recommend using quick steel cut oats - use regular steel cut. The quick steel cut oats turned to mush after soaking and it literally took 2 times as long to cook/dry. The yield was also lower at 3 cups instead of 4. 2) I stumbled across maple sugar (not syrup), and gave it a try. Only 4 tablespoons were needed, and was more than sweet enough. For those trying to cut down on glucose, maple sugar has only 3 grams of sugar per teaspoon. Much lower than table (4.2), honey (6 grams), and syrup (5 grams).

    Thank you for the grapenuts alternative! I used to LOVE putting grapenuts in my yogurt but now can't eat wheat. I am over here doing my happy dance as I now have an alternative. THANK YOU!

    This is about the "corn flakes": ages ago, when I was first introduced to my biological paternal family, one of my favorite places to visit was my uncle's farm in El Salvador (almost the entire paternal side of the family lived there) because he had all sorts of interesting and beautiful, to me, things growing on it. From livestock to plants, familiar and not so much. And he would take the time to tell me about ALL of it. And I was absorbing all he was willing to share! One of the things his wife, my aunt, cooked for us that I was just reminded about was a sort of corn tortilla but it was made with corn that wasn't quite dried yet, but wasn't young either. When it was cut off the cob it still had some "cream" but it ended up looking like batter with mostly intact kernels in it. The half pancake/half tortilla was poured into a small sheet of banana leaf, then that was folded in half, and all of it toasted on a large clay "comal" (think round baking sheet, slightly convex) placed over a wood fire for breakfast, and served with a bowl of fresh milk, still foamy from the cow. I was taught to break it up and put the pieces in the milk, then add a few grains of the real sea salt most commonly used by those who are more penny conscious, since it's cheaper than ground up salt that can be used in a salt shaker (just a curious bit of info for those interested). It was so delicious! The corn "pancake" was a bit sweet, but the salt made it interesting. The banana leaf piece was discarded, but it added a certain amount of grassy undertones (that in retrospect I can identify), that the milk would also have because his cattle were allowed to graze on pasture all day. Eating at his place was always lovely! ❤

    As a person who was once addicted to cereal and still struggle to avoid it till that day, this video made me shed a few tears 😭🙌🏾 THANK YOU
  • @andreawright3505
    This is very impressive! I don't think I've ever seen anyone make homemade cold cereal before (other than granola of course). Fascinating and creative!!
  • @skribulz7
    I’ve looked for home made cereal recipes online and they were all so complicated and were basically fancy granola. I love the simplicity of these recipes. Can’t wait to give them a try.
  • I have forgotten about homemade cereals! I use to make a corn flake cereal for my kids to bulk them up. They were an emergency kinship placement with me because I grew up with their mom. They were “failure to thrive” and half the size they should be. I used the cereal as a vehicle for a flavored milk that I bought at a local farm. I didn’t make the corn flakes from tortillas. Just a tortilla type dough and I rolled it out super thin and dehydrated it. Sometimes I’d flavor it with cinnamon. I so enjoy your videos, Cassandra! Thank you so much for your teachings! ❤
