How to Make Cinnamon Cereal Crunchies

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 1 large egg white with an electric mixer on high speed until foamy (about 1 minute).
  3. Beat in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gradually beat in ½ cup packed light brown sugar on medium speed until the mixture is thick and glossy (about 2-3 minutes).
  5. Gently fold in 3 cups of your favorite cereal until completely coated. (Rice Krispies or similar work well).
  6. Spread the mixture evenly and thinly onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cereal is set.
  8. Immediately remove the cereal crunchies from the baking sheet using a spatula and place them on a wire rack to cool.
  9. Once completely cool, break the large sheet into smaller, bite-sized pieces.
  10. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
