About the Recipe
A lot of breakfast cereals contain added and refined sugars and extruded grains, which can mean starting the day with a processed, high sugar meal - spiking your blood sugars and insulin levels and potentially leave you feeling tired and hungry just a few hours later. This recipe is refined sugar free and uses wholegrains, nuts and seeds.
