I’m working with Post Cereal’s Honeycomb to create a few recipes, this is a sponsored post. This first recipe was the first step in my big recipe. Honeycomb is inviting you to “think biggerer” when it comes to breakfast. We want to bring Honeycomb back to the table for a bigger breakfast option. However, bigger is not enough, you need to think “biggerer” than ever before. Which is one of the reasons why this is going to be a two part post. The first is our Honeycomb pie crust recipe. Once you have this recipe you could go in any direction you want.
Honeycomb Pie Crust Recipe:
Ingredients:
4 cups Honeycomb cereal
1/2 cup butter melted
(no sugar is needed because Honeycomb cereal combines sweetened corn and unique hexagonal shapes with big honey flavor, making it a kid’s staple for kids and cereal lovers nationwide)
Directions:
Heat oven to 350
For best results combine the cereal and butter in a food processor.
(Today I just crushed the cereal in a plastic bag)
Then flatten in a pie tin or oven safe baking dish
Bake for 20 – 30 minutes (depends on how thick your crust ends up, basically as soon is it is golden brown take it out to cool). Letting it get golden brown lets it keep that big honey flavor and big crunch to make it the perfect breakfast option.
Stay tuned for our finished recipe as we turn this amazing Honeycomb Pie Crust into an even “biggerer” snack time option.
Here are a few ideas on how to best use this Honeycomb pie crust recipe:
Turn the crust into a quiche.
Turn the crust into an apple pie.
Turn the crust into a yogurt topping.
That’s the best pie crust I’ve ever seen. I love Honeycomb. I have since I was a kid. Making a pie crust out of it is pure genius!
I bet this is really yummy. I never would have thought to use Honeycomb cereal as a pie crust. I can’t wait to try this the next time I make a pie.
Now that sounds like a delicious pie crust. I should really try using it for one of my desserts!
Okay I never thought of using Honeycomb for pie crust, but what a neat idea. I am sure this tastes super yummy too. I will give it a try with my next pie, why not?!
I just LOVE this idea. I totally have to try it. My family will LOVE it.
That is a great idea for a pie crust. I am not a baker but this looks too easy to pass up and with summer fruits this could be for peach or blueberry pie.
Using honeycomb as a pie crust sounds like a great idea. It would make a great ice cream pie I think.
What a fun idea to use it for a pie crust. I love that this has actually been done.
We absolutely love Honey Combs! This is an awesome way to use them.
I’ve never thought to use them this way! How creative and super delicious to boot!
What a great idea for a crust! I have lots of recipes that would taste amazing with a crust like that!
I’ve never thought of this! Looks delicious and super easy.
This is such a good idea, my kids love Honeycomb! Now I need to come up with some fun ideas for different pies to make with it!
My kids LOVE Honeycomb cereal. I would never have thought to make it into a pie crust. Genius!
What a yummy and unique recipe! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I havent had honeycomb cereal in so long! Wow to make it into a pie crust should be interesting.
I never thought about making pie crust with cereal. This sounds like a yummy recipe.
This is an awesome and unique idea for a pie crust. I think that would be good for making apple pie. I will try that. Maybe it would work well for making cheesecakes too? Thanks for the idea!
That’s such a great idea! We love Honeycomb by itself, but using it as a pie crust means we can gobble it up with our favorite treat recipes.
Awesome idea. I will make this pie crust and use it to make a cheesecake. Apple pie sounds good too. That sounds great too. I have never thought of using Honey Comb cereal this way. Thanks for the idea!
I never thought to use this cereal as a pie base. I think this could also be good for cheesecake too.
This is a cool idea. I would enjoy making this with my niece.
What a great idea. I bet this tastes really good
I would think this would work out well. I could see using this in a cobbler of some sort that the fruit isnt particularly sweet and cutting back the sugar. The filling would seep into the cereal making it really good. Honeycomb cereal is one of the first sweet cereals that we got as kids besides the old stand bys.
Sounds like a nice idea love to try this
This is such a creative idea. I love cereal, so this sounds like the perfect pie crust to me.
A very good way to use the cereal. Makes a fun base.
