Pour the desired amount of cereal into a bowl. Add your preferred milk, such as dairy or a plant-based alternative, to cover the cereal. Allow it to soak for a moment if you prefer a softer texture, or enjoy it immediately for maximum crunch. It can also be eaten dry as a convenient snack. For a different approach, consider crushing it and using it as a coating for fried items or as a crunchy topping for desserts and casseroles.
