My family loves cereal bars but I hated making them with marshmallows and corn syrup. I found a recipe (#94905) and embellished it a bit. They are a little crumbly but my husband loved them, which was the clincher since he isn't a huge peanut butter fan. I'll be making these again! They are just 5 steps. Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter (or experiment with almond butter, too) |
1/2 cup honey |
3 tablespoons cocoa powder |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/3 cup sunflower seeds |
2/3 cup dried cherries, cranberries, and blueberries mix |
1/3 cup unsweetened grated coconut |
3 cups puffed rice cereal |
Directions:
1. 1. Spray 8x8 pan with cooking spray. If you want a thinner bar, use a 9x9 pan.
2. 2. In a large saucepan, melt peanut butter and honey over medium heat.
3. 3. When melted, turn off heat and add remaining ingredients.
4. 4. Stir, and spoon into greased pan.
5. 5. Let cool and enjoy!
6. *Note: The cocoa powder, sunflower seeds, dried fruit and coconut are optional ingredients and can be removed or replaced with like ingredients. For example, you could try using cashews and dried apricots, etc.
