Brown Rice Crispy Treats (no sugar)

I found this recipe somewhere online and decided to give them a try since someone gave me a box of the needed cereal.  So, here's my recipe.  They're easy, yummy, and pretty healthy!

1 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups brown crisp rice cereal (

Melt the peanut butter and honey together (it will be pretty thick but smooth).  Add the vanilla and stir well.  Pour over the cereal, stir to coat completely.  Pour into a 7x11 buttered pan.  Smooth the top.  Refrigerate until cold.  It will be firm but the pieces will fall apart somewhat (more than the sugary kind).  Cut into 24 pieces, 105 calories each.

  1. I will have to try these out! I have made Dr Oz's recipe before and those are good too. 7 c puffed brown rice, 1 1/2 c crunch organic peanut butter, 2/3 c agave nectar, and 1 1/2 tbsp vanilla
