"Cinnamon Toast Crunch" - odd but good!

[doeskin]

I came up with this while really craving cereal one evening, and playing around with different ideas. This is one of those recipes that may sound too wierd to even give it a shot, but if you love cereal try it!

3 tbsp heavy whipping cream
2 tbsp water (optional but helps)
1 packet Splenda
1 handful pork rinds
cinnamon powder

Pour the whipping cream, water, and Splenda into the bottom of a cereal bowl. Add several dashes of cinnamon, and stir. The cinnamon will remain kind of clumpy, but that's okay. Add the pork rinds a few at a time (I like to use the smaller bits that collect at the bottom of the bag for a more cereal-like effect, but you could always crush larger ones) and stir them as best you can until all rinds are covered with the cream mixture. It's IMPORTANT that the rinds get covered, the soggier the better. You'll be able to hear them snap, crackle, and pop at this point.

dig in with a spoon and enjoy!

It's induction legal!
1 serving = 3 carbs
Carbs will differ depending on what kind of cream and how much Splenda you use.

Had for a snack and it was awesome!!! no one at work believes that pork rinds could taste like cinnamon toast crunch!!!

We stock Prairie Farms products and if your store carries them you can find it in a yellow carton, it will say Heavy Whipping Cream on it. This sounds good, I will have to give it a shot.

I'm having a pretty boring day - not much to do around the house - so naturally I keep walking back and forth to the kitchen. I decided to try this and it is awesome! It may have just kept me from cheating. YUM!!

Initially, my reaction was YUCK!

But I bought the ingredients last night, came home and made some, and I have to say it is VERY good. The trick is to just stir it until the rinds are all in the cream/cinnamon/splenda mixture.

Any naysayers who think from reading the recipe that it can't possibly taste okay - just TRY it! You will be pleasantly surprised!

Thinning the cream out with water will allow you to have even more of this stuff - and I admit I will be having more! :yes

Thanks for the recipe!
