Love, love, love. I make this often as a morning treat. I add more cranberries and nuts though to bulk it up. I also use part cinnamon and part ginger in the recipe. I think the amount of coating is just fine if you mix it well enough. I don't like too much sweet, this is just enough as is. I do bake it on a silicone baking mat which may help with the distribution of the coating.

It leaves a weird after taste. It might have been the pan that I used though. I think that I will try this again with a new pan.

Addicting. Though it seemed the recipe did not make enough coating to cover the cereal.

The cooking time was too long and the coating burned somewhat. Possiably could turn the heat down but the ginger flavor also did not come out in the taste. Needs more umph.
