Questions about Corn Flakes cereal

How do you keep corn flakes crunchy in milk?

Pour the milk over them just before eating rather than letting them sit; they soften quickly. For a crisp finish, add the flakes last when serving fruit or yoghurt.

Can you use corn flakes as a coating for chicken or fish?

Yes. Crush them into coarse crumbs, dip the food in beaten egg, then press on the crumbs. Bake on an oiled tray at 200 °C until golden and cooked through; chicken should reach 75 °C in the centre.

What can you add to corn flakes for breakfast?

Try sliced banana or berries with milk or yoghurt, or add chopped nuts and seeds for crunch. Dried fruit works well too, but sweetened toppings can make the bowl very sugary.

How should you store corn flakes after opening?

Fold the inner bag closed or transfer the flakes to an airtight container, then keep them in a cool, dry cupboard. Moisture makes them stale and soft.

Are corn flakes a good substitute for breadcrumbs?

They make a crisp, slightly sweet coating for fish, chicken or baked vegetables. Crush them finely for an even crust, and use plain, unsweetened flakes if you do not want extra sweetness.

Are corn flakes usually fortified with iron?

Many are, but fortification differs between products. This food provides 18.5 mg of iron per 100 g.

What is the difference between corn flakes and Frosted Flakes?

Frosted Flakes have a sugar coating and contain 87 g of carbohydrate per 100 g, compared with 83 g in corn flakes. Their energy is similar: 380 kcal per 100 g for Frosted Flakes versus 392 kcal for corn flakes.
