3 1/2 c. graham (whole wheat) flour
1 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 c. buttermilk
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Add the buttermilk and vanilla and mix well. Pour out into an oiled 12"x16" flat baking pan and spread evenly with a spatula.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the batter is firm, medium brown in color and shrinks from the sides of the pan.

With a metal spatula, completely loosen the hot pattie from the pan. Allow to cool on a rack for several hours or overnight.

Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Break pattie into chunks and put through a meat grinder, using a coarse blade, or pulse in a food processor until coarse crumbs are formed.

Divide crumbs between 2 (12"x16") pans. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Let cool, then store in an air tight container. Serve as a cold cereal, with milk and a bit of brown sugar, if desired.
