Grains aren't keto friendly. With having to keep net carbs rather low, you're better sticking to protein focused breakfasts with some vegetables and fat added to the mix. If you're active, your carb allowance on keto is higher and you can have something like yogurt and berries. If you want crunch, nuts are keto friendly, but as always, calories matter and they are calorie bombs.9

Instead of cereal, there are options like this: https://www.myketokitchen.com/keto-recipes/low-carb-cinnamon-keto-cereal/
Personally, when I tried out keto (and when eating lower carb in general), I cut out grains and would eat eggs and veg at breakfast. I found it hard enough not to go over my carbs just from non-starchy veg and some nuts or occasional greek yogurt, so didn't do any of the fake keto versions of high carb foods.1 -

Yes, your recipe link and the next one both look low volume and are low protein, and much more of a PITA than eggs and low carb veg.2 -
There are some low-ish carb cereals out there. To make them keto, it is more about a small serving size.
I have had Holy Crap cereal, but the serving size is 3 Tbs. Lol
