Here’s my vegan version of the popular cereal…I developed this recipe as a Christmas present for my mum, who’s nearing her first Veganniversary!
For a super quick near-instant version, scroll down to the bottom of this page.
Ingredients:
440g plain cornflakes (Lidl’s are good – keep an eye out for Vit D3, which is usually derived from sheep wool)
100g golden syrup
140g roasted peanuts, no red skins, chopped finely
Vegetable oil
Method:
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees C/160 fan.
Place cornflakes in a large mixing bowl.
Melt golden syrup on a low heat in a pan (tip: heat a spoon over a gas flame before scooping it out of the tin, it’s a lot easier!).
When it’s nice and liquidy, drizzle it over the cornflakes whilst stirring with a small metal spoon.
Stir in the chopped nuts.
Tip onto a lined baking tray, drizzle lightly with oil and mix gently.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring regularly and checking the flakes aren’t burning.
Leave to cool completely before placing in an airtight container.
Enjoy with plant-based mylk and fresh berries.
Bonus quick & instant version:
In a cereal bowl, mix 2 tsps maple syrup and 2 tsps crunchy peanut butter.
Add plain cornflakes, stir, add mylk and enjoy!
