Directions
No-Bake Rice Krispies Peanut Butter Granola Bars (Lower-Fat), This is a delicious lower fat bar if using reduced-fat peanut butter, these are perfect for kid’s lunch boxes, feel free to add in some chopped nuts or sunflower seeds or coconut in place of the raisins, , How long do these keep? Planning on sending some international, will they be okay?, As I have now made these about 15 times I figured it is time I made a review LOL! I am giving 5 stars because the beauty of this recipe is its versatility–I have used cashew butter, chocolate chips, and dried cherries together, almond butter with chocolate chips and mint extract, and peanut butter with chocolate chips and crushed pretzels I always use old fashioned oats pulsed in my coffee grinder a bit, and I often use a mixture of rice crispy cereal and plain cheerios (those cereals that languish in the pantry toward the end of the box LOL) You can totally make these in the microwave; I mix the nut butter, honey, and about 1/4 sugar and microwave for about 45 seconds, stir, then pop it back in the microwave for about 20 seconds Easy peasy and dangerously quick! The only major tweak I make every time is one I highly recommend–if you use natural nut butters, add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt with the dry ingredients It will make these taste much more like their store bought counterparts My kids and I inhale these almost as fast as I can make them, so thank you for the recipe!
