It is not just favored for its deliciously tangy flavor but also for the numerous ways it can be incorporated into various recipes. I have decided that common store-bought cereals are not a health-conscious option for our family. I have been making homemade granola for years. In addition, I have begun testing other homemade cereal options. My kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch, so I decided to try to make it from scratch. This is also a creative use of leftover starter or discard, and it not only reduces waste; but also introduces a nutritious and flavorful addition to your breakfast routine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What is Sourdough?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sourdough is a type of bread made through the natural fermentation of dough using wild lactobacilli and yeast. Unlike commercial yeast, which quickly leavens bread, sourdough requires a longer fermentation process, giving it its characteristic tangy flavor and chewy texture. The process begins with a sourdough starter, a mixture of unbleached flour and water that creates yeast and beneficial bacteria naturally from the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What is Sourdough Discard?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sourdough discard is the excess of the starter that is removed during the feeding process to maintain the right balance and prevent the starter from becoming too large. This discard can be used in various recipes to avoid waste and make the most of its unique flavor and nutritional benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>INGREDIENTS<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sourdough Discard\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Flour \u2013\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I use all-purpose un bleaches flour\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sugar\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Salt\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Cinnamon\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Butter- cold<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Vanilla Extract \u2013\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I make my own.

Pulse until the mixture resembles pea-sized crumbs. Alternatively, you can use a pastry cutter to achieve the same texture by hand in a mixing bowl.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">STEP 4: Add Sourdough Starter and Vanilla<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0 &#8211; Add 1\/2 cup of sourdough discard. Next, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the mixture. Pulse in a mixer or by hand until the dough begins to come together. If the dough is too dry, add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing for 15-30 seconds after each addition until the dough forms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">STEP 5: Prepare the Dough for Rolling<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0 &#8211; Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and cut it in half. Roll out one half at a time into a large rectangle about 1\/8 inch thick. The thinner the dough, the crunchier the cereal! *NOTE: roll as thin as you can. The dough will puff up during the cooking process. My kids preferred the thinner cruncher pieces.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">STEP 6: Transfer and Top the Dough<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0 &#8211; Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
