Description

Brown Rice Krispie Treats are a healthier twist on the classic Rice Krispie Treats. Instead of using regular Rice Krispies, this recipe calls for brown rice cereal, which is a whole grain and has more fiber and nutrients. These treats are also made with natural sweeteners and coconut oil instead of butter, making them a guilt-free snack option.
