Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Cinnamon Toast Crunch
  1. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon, mixing well until uniform.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine whole grain wheat flour and optional flax meal with water. Stir until a cohesive dough forms.
  3. Place your dough between two sheets of parchment paper to prevent sticking. Roll it out to about 1/8 inch thick.
  4. Brush the rolled-out dough lightly with aquafaba. Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the surface.
  5. Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into ½ to ¾ inch squares and arrange them on a baking tray.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the squares for about 10 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Let the squares cool completely on a wire rack.
