Instructions
CHEERIOS® Rings
- Pre-heat the oven to 170°C.
- Sieve all dry ingredients into a mixing bowl.
- Combine wet ingredients together in a small cup, stir until sugar and salt completely dissolved.
- Add wet mix to the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until no more lumps. Do not over mix. Rest the batter for 5 mins. Batter consistency after resting should be similar to peanut butter.
- Put the batter into a piping bag fitted with a plain nozzle, 3mm in diameter. Optionally, use a disposable piping bag and make a very small cut at the tip.
- Pipe rings the same size as CHEERIOS® onto a baking tray lined with non-stick paper.
- Bake at 170°C for 8-10 minutes.
- Allow to cool after baking.
Slurry
- Mix sugar, honey and boiling water together until sugar is completely dissolved. Use immediately, or reheat in microwave for few seconds if cooled down.
- For every 50g of baked rings, drizzle ¾ teaspoon of the hot slurry. Mix quickly until the rings are uniformly coated.
- Spread the coated rings on a baking tray lined with a non-stick paper.
- Bake at 120°C for 8-10 minutes until crispy.
