Cinnamon Toast Crunch
Pork Rind Cereal
I grew up on cereal and skim milk for breakfast so finding a tasty cereal option while eating this lifestyle can be hard. While we were in Hawaii we made this recipe and it was not only a tasty breakfast, it also made a tasty and easy snack on the beach. If you are looking for a low carb homemade cereal you must try this pork rind cereal!

This looks delicious, I can’t wait to try it once I am done with my cleanse. Going to let my daughter try it asap, she misses cereal.
Such a fantastic idea!! I can’t wait to try this!
Great idea. I was never a cereal fan myself but I can totally see me eating these as a snack. I am also going to try it with your Cajun seasoning. Thanks
I just made this and it is so fabulous. Like having a cinnabon in a bowl with milk. I used ghee, and almond milk. Can’t say enough about it. Will be my go to snack when I want something sweet. Easy and not expensive to make. Thanks so much for your creative mind. You make my life so much easier.
Thanks!
Can I drink true raw milk while on the Keto Diet?? I can’t find any info on it, & we’re about to get a family dairy cow. Raw milk has such amazing health benefits & I’m praying I can drink it while eating/living a keto lifestyle. Thanks in advance 😊
It is ok but will add carbs and sugar. I prefer nut milks.
A nice break from eggs, and fast to make. This is delicious, thanks for the recipe.

Does this work with store bought salty pork rinds?
Just made it and that is what I used, so yes!
Can you say Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Yum!
What are the macros for this?
I added it above.
What brand of pork rinds do you recommend? It seems if all the more natural brands (epic, pork clouds) are flavored?
Any that are just pork rinds and salt. 🙂
Is there something other than pork rinds we can use? We don’t eat pork.
Sorry, don’t know of any sub.
OMG! Made this last night, and ate it last night! This was the closest I’ve been to “real” cereal! OMG! I loved it, next time I’m making a double batch. This was fantastic! Now all I need is crunch berry flavoring, and I will never feel a need to eat cereal again, this will do it!
Thanks!
Sounds wonderful. Cannot wait to try this
Oh my goodness, Maria!!! I made this today and it was so amazingly delicious! I thought the pork rinds would go soggy with the melted coconut oil but it was so crunchy and crispy and hit the cereal spot! I was one of those kids that could eat 4 or 5 bowls of cereal, even at 30 years old, it’s hard to resist cereal. It was honestly the hardest thing to give up when I started eating ketogenic. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I can’t tell you how much I’ve benefited from all the information you provide through your blog and your wonderful cookbooks.
Thank you!!
I told my kids it was Cinnamon Pork Crunch and they both loved it! It’s fast and easy to make too. Thanks Maria for always finding a new way to look at foods that I would never think of making something out of. I used half butter, half coconut oil and it was really good. I bet I’ll get asked to make this one again soon and it’s easy enough that my kids can probably make it themselves if I show them how.
Will this keep in the refrigerator for a few days without going soggy? (Obviously without the milk). Would love to make a large batch so I don’t have to make every morning.
What the heck.. I just made this and it is out of this world! You are a recipe genius, Maria!
I can tell this is going to be delicious. I use pork rinds all the time for guacamole so they are always on hand. Is this best the same day tho? Or is it something I could quadruple for the family ahead of time? Thank you for all you do!
Thanks for this great looking delicious recipe. Always appreciated the good work. This is really an innovative and awesome work!!!
Thanks!
Really good overall. Here’s where mine needed improvement, so I’ll share. I didn’t follow the directions closely enough that called for small pieces. Some of the pieces I left were too large, and those tasted like pork rinds the most. You really need a large coating to pork rind ratio to make this work best. I will also be in search for the lowest salt pork rinds I can find, or use unsalted butter, because mine were a bit too salty. But I am totally impressed and must go shopping for the ingredients to the copycat Crunch Berries, because if I can make those I will be so happy!
I used half the sweetener and this was very very sweet. I will try just a teaspoon next time. Each teaspoon of swerve confectioners sweetener has 3 grams of carbs, so 2 tablespoons would give this 18 carbs! I like the concepr and will keep playing around with this recipe. 🙂
I’m pretty sure there carbs in swerve are sugar alcohols that are not counted.
Oh my- I am on week two of the Cleanse and I have to say…. Maria am amazed at some of the creative recipes you have! Can’t wait to give this one a go!
Thanks!
