Crunchy Wheat Cereal

Author Unknown

Makes approx. 5 cups cereal & 2 cups crumbs

 

	6 Cups whole wheat flour
	1 tsp. baking soda
	1 1/2 cups brown sugar
	2 cups buttermilk (2/3 cup powdered milk, 2 cups water, 2 Tbsp vinegar or lemon juice)

Mix ingredients thoroughly. Press or roll evenly to fit 2 ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 deg until golden brown around the edges. Turn over with spatula, break into small pieces and return to 200 deg oven to dry out thoroughly. Grind chunks in food or meat chopper on coarse blade. Put ground chunks in strainer and sift out small granular pieces. Larger pieces may be used for cereal and casseroles. Finer pieces may be used as graham cracker crumbs for pie crusts and other desserts.

Variations:
Add cinnamon to the dough before baking. Add nutmeg to give a custard or eggnog flavor. Poultry stuffing can be made by eliminating sugar and adding sage, poultry seasoning, celery salt and bouillon granules. Make salad toppers by adding garlic salt, onion powder, salt or other favorite condiments. You can even make dog and cat food by reducing sugar and adding bouillon, then breaking up to the appropriate size.
