Step 3: Cook the Syrup
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. Place over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a boil. Let it boil for 1–2 minutes, then remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda. The mixture will bubble slightly—this is what gives it that light, crunchy texture.
Step 4: Coat the Cereal
Immediately pour the hot syrup mixture over the cereal. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to gently toss until all the cereal is evenly coated.
Step 5: BakeBreakfast cereal subscriptionCooking classes online
Spread the coated cereal evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and slightly crisp.
Step 6: Add the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating
While the cereal is baking, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. As soon as the cereal comes out of the oven, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over it and toss to coat evenly.
Step 7: Cool and Enjoy
Allow the Churro Snacks to cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, break into clusters and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.Cinnamon sugar butterBaking ingredients kit
