Description
The soft, chewy, gluten-free treats are reminiscent of the original Rice Crispy treat, but packed with sweet flavor from real ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2/3 cup coconut nectar
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/3 cup chia seeds
- 4 cups brown rice crisp cereal
Instructions
- Combine the butter and coconut nectar in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil for one minute, then remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Pour the cereal and chia seeds into a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
- Pour in the boiled mixture and stir until well coated.
- Line a 9-inch baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking, then spread the mixture in the pan. Use an additional piece of parchment paper over the top of the cereal and then pack the cereal into the pan. You can use a grill press to help make sure it is packed in tightly.
- Place the bars into the freezer to cool for 45 minutes, then remove the parchment from the pan, slice and serve.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- *You could easily make these your own by adding cocoa nibs, peanut butter chips or using cocoa crispy rice cereal. Play around with any number of combinations!
