Multigrain cereal is a mixture of various types of cereals such as wheat, corn, oats, barley, and rye, combined to offer a nutritious and versatile option in the kitchen. This ingredient is frequently used in the preparation of breads, cookies, energy bars, and other baked goods, providing a crunchy texture and a more complex flavor than single-grain cereals.
