Delicious and not too sweet. You may use spelt flour as an alternative to wheat, and honey and sucanat instead of sugar. Instructions are long, but not too difficult.

I had some trouble finding coconut crunch cereal, but I was able to substitute another type of cereal and it still turned out great.
