Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium-sized skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it is fully liquefied.

  2. 2

    Add the Cereal

    Once the butter is melted, add the Cap'n Crunch cereal to the skillet, stirring gently to coat the cereal evenly in the butter.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Toast the Cereal

    Continue to cook the cereal mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently to ensure even browning. Cook until the cereal is crispy and golden brown, approximately 5-7 minutes.

    Optional Toppings

    If desired, drizzle honey over the toasted cereal and sprinkle with cinnamon and chopped nuts for added flavor and texture. Mix gently to combine.
