Ingredients

  • For Caramelized Cornflakes (makes 18 oz):
  • 10 oz. cornflakes
  • 2 oz. nonfat dry milk powder
  • 4 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted
  • For Cereal Milk (approximately 1 c.):
  • 4 c. whole milk
  • 14 oz. caramelized cornflakes

Directions

  1. To prepare the caramelized cornflakes:

  2. Preheat your oven to 275 F.

  3. Put the cornflakes in a large mixing bowl and crush them with your hands a few times.

  4. Combine milk powder, sugar and salt in another bowl, give it a stir and set aside.

  5. Add the melted butter to the cornflakes and then the sugar mixture and toss to combine.

  6. Spread out on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven until they caramelize, for approximately 35 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature.

  7. To prepare the cereal milk:

  8. Combine 14 oz of caramelized cornflakes and milk in a large mixing bowl and let steep for an hour.

  9. Strain the milk with the help of a fine-mesh sieve (make sure to press on the cornflakes with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible), strain once again (through a finer sieve or cheesecloth this time), pour it in a container and set aside.

  10. Chill the milk in the refrigerator.
