Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups Rice Chex cereal, ground into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup unsalted pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 cup raw unsalted sunflower seeds
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons creamy unsalted peanut butter (or nut/seed butter of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with foil, and make sure the ends of the foil go over the top of the dish. (It makes it easier to lift up!)
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground Rice Chex, dried fruits, seeds, cinnamon, salt and chocolate chips.
  3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter, honey, vanilla and coconut oil for about 20-30 seconds. Stir until creamy, and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Stir the wet mixture into the Chex mixture until combined. Spread the mixture into the baking dish in an even layer. Add extra whole Chex pieces on top.5. Allow to set in the fridge for at least 1 hour until hardened slightly. Lift up the foil to remove from the baking dish, and using a serrated knife, carefully cut into bite-sized squares. Store covered in the fridge.

Notes

  • These tend to soften at room temperature, so keep cool until you plan to eat.
