A ready-to-eat breakfast cereal product contains coarse particulate vegetable components, sugar components, and shortening, with or without other ingredients, and is substantially free of flour. The ingredients are mixed into a heterogeneous moldable mass, and the mass is die molded to form a plurality of bite sized pieces which are dried to form a crisp structure characterized by a matrix of particulate components coated and adhered together by the sugar and shortening components.
