I found a way to make cheerios taste even better.

Only 2 ingredients added to it and it completely changes the taste of these amazing breakfast recipe.

Green apples have a nice tart taste and cheerios are a light taste.  I combined the two and added pure maple syrup to add natural sweetness to it.

The cinnamon sugar was a last minute addition.  It was sitting on my counter and I figured it would make the cheerios taste amazing.

I am happy to report that it enhanced the taste of the snack without overpowering it.

You can add milk to this cereal and eat it for breakfast.  I liked it with milk and also just as a regular snack.  I found myself sitting at my desk and munching on them while I worked.

Fair warning, these cereal snack is VERY addictive

My other favorite cereal is this Special K Strawberry Cereal and this tomato granola.

WinnDixie always has all the ingredients in this recipe at very affordable rates.  I find their cereals to be more affordable than other places.

What is your favorite way to eat cheerios?

Easy Cheerios and Apples Snack

1) In a bowl, add 1 cup of finely chopped apples.  I went with granny smith apples that hadn’t ripened yet.  This made sure that they didn’t get soggy or go limp during the cooking process.

2) Add 1 Tbsp of maple syrup to the apples and mix well.  I used pure maple syrup in this recipe but you can choose regular maple syrup

3) Microwave for 30 seconds and then remove from heat.  Allow it to cool for a few minutes.  Place the apples in a pan and add 3 cups of cheerios.  Mix well and then top with 1/4 tsp of cinnamon powder

4) Transfer to a bowl and serve.  Eat by itself or add 2 cups of milk and enjoy.

If you have left over green apples, turn them into Apple Chips!
