Here’s a healthy, vegan, and gluten-free chocolate peanut butter rice crispy recipe that’s easy to make and delicious. These rice crispy treats are a delightful balance of crispy, chewy, and chocolatey goodness.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups gluten-free rice cereal
• ½ cup natural peanut butter (or almond butter for peanut-free)
• ¼ cup maple syrup (or agave syrup)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ teaspoon sea salt
• ½ cup dairy-free dark chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the pan:
Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.

2. Melt peanut butter mixture:
In a small saucepan over low heat, stir together peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until smooth and well combined. Remove from heat.

3. Mix with rice cereal:
In a large mixing bowl, add the rice cereal. Pour the peanut butter mixture over it and gently stir until evenly coated.

4. Press into the pan:
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press down firmly to create an even layer.

5. Melt the chocolate on the stove:
In a heatproof bowl, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler method), ensuring the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

6. Top with chocolate:
Pour the melted chocolate over the rice crispy layer and spread evenly.

7. Chill and set:
Place the pan in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

8. Slice and serve:
Once set, cut into squares and enjoy!

Storage:

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.

Enjoy! 😊
