To Cook: Stir 2/3 cup of flakes into 2 cups of boiling water or milk and cook 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for about 3 minutes before serving. If you desire a thicker cereal, cook several minutes longer. Suggestions:

• Add raisins, cranberries, or other dried fruits to the flakes as they are cooking. The fruits will plump and help to sweeten the cereal.
• Sweeten with honey, maple syrup, or your favorite natural sweetener; finish with toasted nuts.
• Try cooking in apple juice or another fruit juice for natural sweetness.
• Substitute up to cup flakes for flour in quick breads or muffins.
• Replace up to the flour in pancakes with flakes.
• Give a protein boost to cookies, breads, or other baked goods.
• Make a delicious crumble topping for pies and fruit crisps.
• Use flakes instead of bread crumbs in casseroles or breadings for fish, chicken, or vegetables.
• Use in vegetarian burgers, or add for substance to hamburgers or meat loaf.
• Thicken soups, stews, sauces, & gravies.
