Delicious snacking cookies made with Post Honey Bunches of Oats Crunch O’s Cereal.
My family was talking about snacks the other day, and the idea of making snacks with breakfast cereal came up. Obviously the most used idea for this is making bars with cereal, but I wanted to try making something different. So I decided to try my hand at making some breakfast cereal cookies for a different snack.
The kids and I headed to Walmart to see what kinds of cereal would be good in cookies. I don’t know about you, but sometimes the cereal aisle can be overwhelming! There are so many choices! We love Honey Bunches of Oats cereal for breakfast, and we were surprised to see several new varieties of Post cereals at Walmart, including a fun new Kung Fu Panda Po Power Crunch cereal inspired by the movie!
We decided to try the new Honey Bunches of Oats Crunch O’s cereal, which my local Walmart offered in 2 varieties: Honey Crunch O’s and Almond Crunch O’s. Turning it into a snack seemed like a simple idea. We also grabbed a bag of Berry Colossal Crunch cereal, since we enjoy munching on dry Berry Colossal Crunch for a snack as well.
Coming up with a recipe for breakfast cereal cookies took a little trial and error, but the final product turned out great! My kids loved that the cookies, and they were easy enough for the kids to help bake. And they thought it was hilarious to be eating cereal in cookies!
These breakfast cereal cookies are a great grab-and-go snack, and I loved how easy they were to make. The recipe makes about 2 dozen cookies. If you want more cookies, you can easily double the recipe, especially since the cookies freeze well.

My family loves eating breakfast together. It’s a great way to start our day, and I love the variety of cereals Post offers that allow us to enjoy our breakfast together. But even more than that, I love that their cereals are ones that we can enjoy as snacks as well– like in these delicious cookies!
Which Post cereal will you be making these breakfast cereal cookies with?
Looking for more cookies?
Making these, right now. Glad I made them tsp sized. Tbs would have been huge. They smell wonderful baking. I always have to add my own twist to everything. I added walnuts, dried cranberries and coconut. Taking these camping for a quick go to breakfast.
These look so good. I love Honey Bunches of Oats cereal.
I think we would have to try Raisin Bran cookies. It seems to be the overall favorite.
I should buy stock on Post because all my kid has for breakfast is the Vanilla Bunches of Oats. He’d love this variety as a go to snack! Thank you 🙂
Yum! We love Honey Bunches of Oats! Converting them into a breakfast cookie, is a fantastic idea!
It’s such a delicious cereal, and really adds great texture and flavor to the cookies!
I have never thought about using cereal in cookies! My daughter is an up and coming baker and I’m sharing this recipe with her!
I bet she’ll love it. They’re pretty easy to make.
This is such a great idea 🙂 we like to make muffins to eat, and often make silly flavor combos like lime and cranberry or pb&j. I think my son would love these breakfast cookies!
Those sound like fun muffins! We eat a lot of muffins here, too.
i love crunchy mix ins for cookies, these look great and will make an excellent morning snack
The Honey Bunches of Oats Crunch O’s cereal gave a great addition to the texture!
