    Course Dessert, Snack
    Servings 8 bars

    Ingredients
      

    • 3 cups gluten-free puffed brown rice cereal of choice
    • ½ cup gluten-free oats
    • pinch salt
    • ¼ cup coconut oil
    • ½ cup maple syrup can sub honey if not vegan
    • ¼ cup nut or seed butter I used sunflower seed butter!
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 cup nondairy chocolate chips

    Instructions
     

    • Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper. In a small saucepan, add the nut butter, coconut oil, and maple syrup. Cook on medium heat until thickened and well combined, continuously stirring.
    • Mix in the vanilla and salt. Remove from heat and let cool. In a separate large bowl, mix the brown rice cereal and oats together.
    • Once the nut butter mixture has cooled a bit, pour it over the dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated. Press the sticky mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Let harden for about an hour.
    • Slice into 8-10 bars. Melt the chocolate. Dip each bar in the chocolate to coat the bottom and lay upside down on a baking sheet to let the chocolate harden. Once hardened, drizzle remaining chocolate over top of the bars. Enjoy!
