Delicious! It's a bit time consuming but it's great to know what is actually in your cereal. I left out the oil, flax see, and wheat germ because it was not available in the grocery, and it didn't seem to make a difference. I also reduced the oven temp and cooked it a little slower to achieve a golden brown without over-toasting. This is a great recipe and I highly recommend it!
