Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 ounces vegan marshmallows
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 5 cups crispy rice cereal
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the coconut oil over low heat.
Add the vegan marshmallows to the saucepan, stirring continuously until they are completely melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt.
Gently fold in the crispy rice cereal, ensuring that all pieces are evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Using a spatula, press it down firmly and evenly to form a compact layer.
Allow the Rice Krispie treats to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Once set, remove the treats from the dish by lifting the parchment paper. Cut into 12 equal squares and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
