Start your morning with a refreshing bowl of Almond-Cherry Cereal, a quick and wholesome vegan breakfast that highlights the perfect balance of creamy plant-based goodness and vibrant fruit flavors.

Ingredients

Makes 1 serving

  • 3/4 - 1 almond butter
  • 1 1/2 - 2 banana
  • 1/2 cherries
  • 8 soymilk

Method

  1. Put the cereal flakes in a bowl and dollop the almond butter on top. (If the almond butter is stiff from refrigeration, you might want to nuke it a few seconds to make it softer & easier to stir in.)

  2. Add the soymilk and stir everything around. You'll probably need two spoons for this, and there will be clumps of almond butter and flakes- this is normal, it won't all stir up uniformly. (These clumps are the tastiest part!).

  3. Dump the fruit on top, and quickly stir it inches Enjoy!

Cook's notes

  • For extra crunch, toast your almond flakes in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  • Use chilled almond milk to keep the cereal refreshing, especially during warmer months.
  • Add a drizzle of maple syrup or agave nectar if you prefer a touch of extra sweetness.

Easy swaps

  • Swap almond milk for soy, oat, or coconut milk based on your preference.
  • If fresh cherries are out of season, frozen cherries (thawed) or dried tart cherries work beautifully.
  • Mix in chia seeds or hemp hearts to boost the protein and omega-3 content of your bowl.
