Notes
If you can get your hands on One Degree Organic Sprouted Rice Cereal this treat just got 100x better for you! I have made these with the plain rice and cocao flavor which adds extra sweetness. Also, switching up vanilla to almond extract is tasty with the almond butter. I love using coconut nectar instead of maple syrup it works great and is lower on the glycemic scale than maple syrup or honey. Using sun butter will give you a nut free treat but feel free to use any of your favorite nut butters. Please use organic where you can.
