Pour the desired amount of cereal into a bowl. Add milk, whether dairy or a plant-based alternative, to cover the cereal. Allow it to soak for a moment to soften slightly, or enjoy it with a crunch. This cereal can also be eaten dry as a quick snack. For a different experience, it can be incorporated into homemade trail mixes or used as a crunchy topping for ice cream or fruit salads, adding a burst of fruity sweetness and texture.
