Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup bite size frosted wheat cereal
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup boiling water
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
2 eggs
6 cups bread flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine cereal, brown sugar, shortening and salt. Pour boiling mixture over mixture. Let cool to room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cereals to create different flavors and textures in your bread. Oatmeal, corn flakes, and shredded wheat are all great options.
  • Be sure to measure your ingredients correctly. Too much cereal can make your bread dry and crumbly, while too little can make it too dense.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, making your bread tough.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the bread for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Shredded cereal bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover cereal, and it is also a good source of fiber and whole grains. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious loaf of shredded cereal bread that the whole family will enjoy.
