Breakfast has gotten so much more creative in recent weeks with dalgona coffee and pancake cereal taking over the internet. Both trends have been so popular that people are finding tons of ways to make the recipes their own, and following the creation of waffle cereal and donut cereal, croissant cereal is here to take the crown.
All of these cereal hacks stem from the concept of making popular breakfast foods into mini versions that can be thrown into a bowl, topped with milk, and enjoyed by the spoonful. Some people get creative by adding sprinkles, syrup, and cutting up fruit to the mix for even more flavor.
Croissant cereal might be the most mesmerizing cereal yet because the mini croissant pieces are so darn cute. If you're not quite an expert baker, this cereal is actually a lot easier to make than you may think. People are using pre-made croissant dough, like the tubes of Pillsbury dough that you buy for full-sized croissants, and are cutting it into smaller triangles to roll into little croissants. From there, they can be baked into the little crispy cereal pieces.
On Instagram, people are adding chopped strawberries to the bowl to add some more sweetness to each bite, and on TikTok, people are finding more ways to personalize their recipes. One video shows a mix of Biscoff cookie butter and Nutella being melted together and spread all over the mini croissants before milk is added to the bowl.
The beauty of all of these food trends is that there is so much room for customization. If you like your breakfast cereals sweet, you can add more toppings, or if you want your cereal pieces extra crunchy, you can adjust how long you bake them. No cereal idea is too far-fetched anymore, so here's hoping something like cinnamon roll cereal or crepe cereal is coming soon. Only time will tell.
