Going to bed and getting up late has been the norm for James, Colin and I since school let out two months ago. We’ve enjoyed every moment of our lazy summer which has included later than normal meals, lots of electronics, time with friends and so much more. But with school starting in three weeks, I’ve started to think about all it will take to get the boys back in a normal routine.
During the school year, the alarm goes off at 6:05 a.m. I can expect the boys to hit their snooze button at least once because they like to sleep as late as they possibly can. We have to cut corners where we can to get to the bus on time. Breakfast is one of the things we can cut so whatever they eat has to devoured on the go. Fruity Pebbles Breakfast Bread allows the boys to eat it for breakfast while walking down the street or for snack when they get home from a long day of learning.
I am at Walmart all the time, especially in the month before school starts, so picking up ingredients for recipes while saving money is effortless. They have a large selection of Post Cereal which means I can get something for everyone in my family. On this occasion, I only purchased Honey Bunches of Oats Honey Roasted, Berry Colossal Crunch and Fruity Pebbles as I had everything else for this recipe at home.
I made this breakfast bread with Fruity Pebbles because I thought it sounded fun but feel free to use any other Post Cereal in its place to change things up! Findingdebra.com has a honeycomb cereal breakfast bread.

Fruity Pebbles Breakfast Bread is only crunchy at the top. The pieces of cereal in the bread soften while baking. I think it’s best served straight out of the oven but it’s easily re-heated if piping hot isn’t an option. Making breakfast bread is so easy that any child could do it on their own (with adult supervision for in and out of the oven) but making it myself is just one of the ways I show my kids that I love them.
What are some of your favorite cereal recipes?
Looking for something different? Try my Simple Overnight Oats recipe!
That really does look delicious, and is a great way to get the kids to eat breakfast in a hurry. What a creative recipe!
What a beautiful loaf. You can bet I pinned this one. Do the pebbles get soggy or ?
They aren’t crunchy but I didn’t think they were soggy. Does that make sense?
This looks SO AMAZING. Capitals required!!! Yum.
This recipe looks delicious and fun! I bet the cereal adds the right amount of fruity flavor to the bread. Can’t wait to try it! #client
What a great idea! I have to try it with the grands!
What is calorie and carb count?
Oh boy, I’m really not sure. I tried to figure it out in a nutrition analyzer but the program was weird.

I haven’t been by in a while but so glad I checked in and saw this recipe. I think my son will love it!
It’s good to ‘see’ you again!! I think he’ll love it, too!
If they come up with something to replace the sugar for this recipe, I would try it.
Do you have a sugarless cereal you like? If so, try it with that!
GREAT neighbor gifts at Christmas???? Betcha, betcha, betcha!!!
Do you really have to add that much more sugar to the recipe? Since there is already so much already in the cereals to begin with? And can you substitute honey for the sugar?
I’m sure you could. I chose not to.
This may be a stupid question, but how would you make the bread chocolate. I think like to have chocolate bread with cocoa puffs or coco pebbles would be delicious.
I’d swap out the Fruity Pebbles for Cocoa Pebbles to start with. If that’s not chocolate-y enough, add some cocoa powder. I’m not sure how much, though, without testing it! Good luck!
You can swap out 1/4 cup of flour with cocoa powder without changing most recipes. 🙂
Good to know! Thanks!
Is this something that can be stored in a zip loc or should it be refrigerated?
I kept it in a Ziploc bag on the counter.
This is so pretty! I can’t wait to try it with my Rainbow Sherbet Pebbles! It would be perfect for Easter! One question, is the cup of yogurt 8 oz. of yogurt, or 1 container of Greek yogurt? Not sure how many oz. are in a container.
The little serving sizes are 4 ounces so you’ll need two of those! I think it’ll be great with Rainbow Sherbet Pebbles!
I made this with sweetened cinnamon squares. turned out good and tasty. used sour cream instead of yogurt
Made this as posted, me and son demolished it in 2 days….was sooooo good! Thank you.
Making it again tomorrow!
YAY!! Thanks for sharing!
Do you think adding citrus zest would amp up the fruity flavor or is there already plenty of fruity flavor?
I think adding citrus zest is a great idea! Can you ever have too much fruity flavor?! 😉
What baking temp and time would you suggest if I wanted to do regular sized muffins instead of a loaf?
I’d keep the 350 but start at about 22 minutes checking about every 2 minutes thereafter.
What can I substitute for the yogurt?
You could try sour cream.
This looks so good! What a fun treat to make with kids!
Thanks for sharing! Does it keep long?
If I were to make this in a bundt pan, any idea on where to start with cook time/temp? I assume I’d need to double the recipe too perhaps.
I would for sure double the recipe – maybe 350* for an hour or so?
Made this with my two year old today! Easy recipe the whole family can help! It was delicious! My daughter wouldn’t wait for it to fully cool to cut it so I bet it’ll be even better in a couple hours!
Is this a gluten free recipe ?
I don’t think so as I believe Fruity Pebbles contains gluten.
Took WAY longer than 55 minutes. It was still batter inside at that point.
Still needed another 30 minutes, by then the top was hard and way too brown.
I made 2 batches at a time today and it made 3 mini loaves and a regular loaf. Had a nice warm piece and it was delicious! My husband and I both enjoyed it. Giving the 3 mini loaves away to family!
Have you tried with any sugar substitutes?
I have not but I would imagine you could if you use them the same as sugar.
Made this today. Was so excited for it not disappointed when I tried it. It had no flavor at all. Very bland. Definitely won’t make this again.
Could you make this bread with Lucky Charms for St. Patrick’s Day?
Totally worth a shot!!
Can you freeze this recipe I like to bake for Christmas.
I’m sure you could but I haven’t tried. And, I like to enjoy mine right out of the oven, so I’m not sure I would attempt to freeze it.
