Homemade corn flakes

I really don't like buying food that I can make in my own kitchen. I like the feeling of security when I know what is in my breakfast...so I was thinking, why shouldn't i make my own cornflakes?

Really, why not.



I'm buying corn flour from an old man on our market place, and sometimes I use corn flour and sometimes yellow polenta. Process is same, only corn flakes with flour is more crunchy. Sometimes i mix flours, creativity is always welcome in the kitchen :)




But the basic recipe is same:

2 cups of polenta (or corn flour, or mix whatever flour you like)
1.5 cup of boiling water
salt




Mix all ingredients together in a bowl until completely moistened. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto baking sheet. Using your spatula, pat out the dough very thin. Bake at 200 degrees Celsius and spray with water 2-3 times. I don't know why, but it works :) Bake for about ten minutes or until golden (and when all water is evaporated). Allow to cool completely. They may not be crispy when removed from the oven. They will get crispier as they cool. Using your fingers, break into smaller pieces.
 

Domaći corn flakes




Ne volim baš jest hranu u kojoj ne znam što je. A nažalost, većinom je takva situacija sa svom kupovnom hranom. Pa sam tako odlučila isprobat napravit domaći corn flakes. Na tržnici kupujem iz provjerenog izvora brašno, ono kukuruzno, palentu, ječmeno itd. Probala sam kornflejks miksati od svakakvih kombinacija. No recept je uvijek isti, a sastojci se mogu kombinirati…



Dakle:
2 šalice palente
1.5 šalica vrele vode
Soli
Sve se smiksa u multipraktiku. Treba biti rjeđe. Rasporedimo smjesu na pleh na koji smo prethodno stavili papir za pečenje. Sa spatulom (strugalicom, lizalicom, kako se već zove) tanko rasporedimo smjesu i stavimo peći na 200 stupnjeva. Pečemo. Ja ne znam zašto, ali tijekom pečenja poprskam 2-3 puta smjesu s vodom, da se valjda bolje skuha :D Uglavnom kad voda ispari, kad se smjesa ispeče, postane zlaćana, onda vadimo van. Čim se malo prohladi zgnječimo u flejkse, tj pahuljice J

To je sve :)
