The methods for fabricating the present multilayered R-T-E cereal pieces comprise: A) preparing at least three separate sheets of cooked cereal dough(s), B) layering the sheets with pressure to form a laminated sheet, C) forming individual pieces from the laminated sheet, D) drying the pieces to 9% to 13% moisture, and E) high intensity microwave puffing the pieces to form R-T-E cereals with multiple layers. The high intensity microwave field is characterized by a field strength of about 150 to 350 V/cm.
