Healthy 4 Ingredient Cake Batter Rice Crispy Treats

Just four easy ingredients are needed to make these healthy cake batter rice crispy treats which are packed with protein! Unlike traditional versions, this one has no butter, oil, marshmallows or added sugars AND requires no baking- It's gluten free and vegan too!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free crispy rice cereal
  • 1/2 cup + 1 T 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)*
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder*
  • Sprinkles (optional)
  • For the protein packed glaze
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 1 T nut butter OR sticky sweetener OR coconut oil, melted
  • water OR dairy free milk to thin out
  • sprinkles (optional)


Instructions


  1. Line a baking tray with baking paper or a muffin tin and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add your crispy rice cereal and set aside.
  3. Stovetop or in the microwave, melt your nut butter with your sticky sweetener and mix well. Add the protein powder and continue stirring until fully incorporated. 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 the mixture over the rice crispy cereal and add sprinkles and mix very well.
