These Vegan Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats are SO DELICIOUS.
They take me straight back to my childhood.
Gymnastics practice. Rice Krispie Treats were ALWAYS my favorite snack!
I couldn't wait until break time to gobble one down ?
The real ones are loaded with sugar and unhealthy-for-you stuff that I would never eat now.
Processed nonsense and tons of sugar. Here's the label:
What even IS all that stuff?!! I definitely don't want any of that in my body.
This vegan version is totally clean and the perfect, yummy, healthier-for-you substitute.
Real Rice Krispie Treats use marshmallows which contain gelatin to create that ooey gooey deliciousness.
These Vegan Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats use agar agar powder, which is an amazing vegan gelatin substitute that's made from seaweed.
Agar agar contains lots of vitamins and minerals and is full of healthy fiber to keep your digestive track running smoothly ?
I use Living Jin brand for my agar agar and buy it on amazon - they are the agar experts! It's the #1 best-selling brand on Amazon and you will understand why when you read the hundreds of reviews! Their powder is inexpensive and high-quality - non-GMO and gluten-free.
