[Promise]

i just made a Flax Cereal recipe i found on ADBB and it included 1/4 cup Flax, 1/4 cup of Cream, 1/3 cup of Water, 1 pkt Splenda, Cinnamon... it came out Kinda SLIMY... Real Sticky... kinda like Play Dough... is it supposed to be like this??? kinda strange to me.......... does anyone else have a GOOD recipe for Hot Flax Cereal for Breakfast?

Flax cereal is slimy.

I've never found a way to make it that it isn't slimy.

This is a recipe I think I found on ADBB, but can't find the original post. I just tried this recipe today, and really like it. I didn't think it was slimy, but tasted like Cream of Wheat. If you add some Mocha Splenda, it tastes like Cocoa Wheats. I also added a small pat of butter. It was a nice change from eggs and bacon.

Hot Flax/Wheat Bran "cereal"

1 tbsp flax meal
2 tbsp unprocessed wheat bran
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 packet Splenda
pinch of salt
Water

I grind the flax meal, wheat bran, cinnamon and Splenda together, place in a bowl and add enough water to make a thin mixture. Microwave for 45 seconds. Some people add cream and butter to this once it's cooked, but I prefer it "as is". It's also good flavored with Da Vinci SF flavored syrups in place of the Splenda.
