Best Keto Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal
Cereal is one of the yummiest foods, but is typically off-limits for those on a Keto or low-carb diet. Even store-bought “Keto” cereals are full of ingredients that are not necessarily Keto-friendly, like vegetable oils or even wheat products. That is why we developed this Keto Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal using the best ingredients like almond flour, cinnamon, eggs, avocado oil, and vanilla extract. The dough is easy to make. Simply place all the ingredients into a single bowl and mix by hand with a spoon. The dough is then rolled out between two pieces of parchment paper into a thin sheet, scored into squares, and baked until crispy. This recipe makes four servings, and the cereal can be stored at room temperature for up to three days in an airtight container.
Can I use other types of oils in this recipe?
Yes, feel free to use olive oil, ghee, coconut oil, butter, tallow, or other Keto-friendly fat.
What type of milk is best for this cereal?
Feel free to use any unsweetened nut milk like almond or cashew milk. If you love coconut, light coconut milk would be excellent. If you are looking to fill fat macros, you could even opt for canned coconut milk for an ultra-rich taste.
What is the best type of sweetener to use?
The best sweetener for this recipe is granulated erythritol, which is very similar to white granulated sugar.
How do you know when the cereal is done baking?
The dough should be starting to brown along the edges. It will not be crispy right out of the oven, but it will harden and crisp as it cools.
Serving suggestions
To make the ultimate pairing, serve this Keto Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal with our Keto Prosciutto Scrambled Eggs for the best high protein and fat-fueled breakfast:

45 min
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300 F. Combine the dry ingredients from the almond flour to the sea salt into a mixing bowl. Mix well with a spoon to combine.Step 2
Next, add all the wet ingredients from the egg to the vanilla extract . Use the spoon to mix the dough into a homogenous mass. The dough will be fairly stiff.Step 3
Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll the cereal as thin as possible (about ⅛” or so). Remove the top piece of parchment paper. Using a pizza cutter or a paring knife, score the dough into small squares about ½” x ½.”Step 4
Combine the two tablespoons of granulated sweetener and ¼ tsp of cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly on top. Slip the bottom piece of parchment paper with the dough attached onto a baking sheet. Then, bake for 25-27 minutes until the dough is cooked through and brown on the edges. The dough will still be soft at this point.Step 5
Allow the dough to cool completely on the baking sheet so it will harden/crisp. Once cooled, break the cereal into pieces along the pre-scored lines. Store the cereal in an airtight container for up to three days.

move it from your countertop to the baking sheet, with the dough on it, to bake?

It just means that you are moving the cookies on the parchment paper from the counter to a cookie sheet. Hope this helps!
