Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup natural almond butter
- 0.5 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with non-stick spray. Set aside.
In a medium microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the almond butter and honey.
Microwave the mixture on high for 20-30 seconds to warm it up, making it easier to mix. Alternatively, heat it in a saucepan over low heat on the stovetop.
Stir the warmed almond butter and honey mixture until smooth and well combined.
Add the vanilla extract and salt to the almond butter mixture, then mix thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, pour in the Rice Krispies cereal.
Slowly pour the almond butter mixture over the Rice Krispies, and gently stir until all the cereal is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or clean hands to press it down evenly into the pan.
Let the treats cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, or place the pan in the refrigerator for quicker setting.
Once set, cut into 12 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
