Ingredients

• 1 cup Grape Nuts cereal
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the Grape Nuts cereal and milk. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the cereal to soften.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract, then stir to combine.

Step 5

Add the softened Grape Nuts mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.

Step 6

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. If using chopped nuts, fold them in at this stage.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
