2 cups gluten-free crispy rice cereal

1/2 cup peanut butter (can sub for almond/cashew)

1/2 cup sticky sweetener of choice- I've used brown rice syrup (best), honey and maple syrup (least sticky)

Instructions:

Line a baking tray with baking paper and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add your crispy rice cereal and set aside.

Stovetop or in the microwave, melt your nut butter with your sticky sweetener and then pour the mixture into the crispy rice cereal and mix well. If you used brown rice syrup, this should be perfect. If you used honey or maple, you may need to add a dash more to make them stick together.

Pour mixture into the lined baking tray and press firmly into place. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Notes-

Rice crispy treats can be kept at room temperature- They can also be refrigerated or frozen too
