again, the Native Americans ate corn meal for breakfast when white settlers got here.
There is no way to know who invented a grain based breakfast food.
In neither of your questions did you specify hot or cold cereal and googling the history of hot cereal will tell you its been around for millenia.

Breakfast cereals have their beginnings in the vegetarian movement in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, which influenced members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the United States. The main Western breakfast at that time was a cooked breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausage, and beef. The first breakfast cereal, Granula (named after granules) was invented in the United States in 1863 by James Caleb Jackson, operator of the Jackson Sanitorium in Warsaw, New York and a staunch vegetarian. The cereal never became popular; it was far too inconvenient, as the heavy bran nuggets needed soaking overnight before they were tender enough to eat
