Bran flake ideas

1/2 a bag of crushed kelloggs bran flakes?

Had to just open a 2nd packet as my DD2 will not eat them as they were so broken up ( and they were looked very crushed) none of the others really eat them for breakfast was mainly for when i had my nieces 4 mornings a week as there favourite but there mums on maternity leave now so i dont having the m in the mornings she has them. I hate to throw away 1/2 a big pack like that.

is there anything i could make with them?

Hows about the famous weetabix brownies..I'm sure you could substitute the bran flakes, especially as they are already crushed.....
If it helps, 1 weetabix weighs 19g or 5/8oz.

Hi angel,

There are some ideas on this older thread:

I'll merge your thread with that one later to keep all the suggestions together.

You could use them as a coating for something that you're going to fry.

Could you mix them with flour and make a crumble topping?

If I have a lot of crumbs at the end of a packet of cereal or if I buy a new cereal and find I don't like it (e.g. I currently have some 'Oats and More' to use up) then I put it in crumble topping. You can replace up to half the flour with breakfast cereal.
This doesn't apply to you as your cereal is already in crumbs, but I usually whizz it all together in the food processor to break up the cereal.
In fact this evening I've just had some apple crumble made with Oats and More - disgusting as a breakfast cereal but made a delicious crumble!

I like 1 cup of grated cheese to 2 cups crushed cereal on the top of pies and savoury dishes instead of pastry--- yum
