Brown Rice Crispy Treats

These Brown Rice Crispy Treats are a healthier version of the popular snack and one of our family's favorites! They're super easy to make and actually packed with protein. Still, just take a minute to look at what’s in a regular Rice Krispy treat and your head will spin. Don’t get me wrong, I love the old fashioned kind, but the thought of marshmallows made with cups of corn syrup made me think twice about making them for my little ones.

In a large sauce pan, heat brown rice syrup, almond and peanut butter over low heat and whisk until melted and combined, about 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat and pour over rice crispies in a large bowl.
Stir with a plastic spatula until completely combined.
Pour into a greased 8 x 8 inch pan and press down to flatten the top (sometimes I put a zip lock bag on my hand like a glove, to press into the pan and flatten the treats).
Cool for 5 minutes and cut into bars.
