Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 Cup Creamy peanut butter
  • 1 Small ripe banana sliced (about 3/4 cup)
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 Cup Semi-sweet or dark chocolate morsels
  • 2 Cups Crisp rice cereal
  • 1/3 Cup Dried cranberries

Method
 

  1. In medium bowl, place peanut butter, banana, cinnamon, and vanilla. Using a fork, mash banana and mix ingredients until smooth.
  2. In small microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate morsels until fully melted, stirring every 30 seconds. Fold chocolate into peanut butter mixture until blended.
  3. Add KELLOGG’S® RICE KRISPIES® cereal and cranberries. Gently fold until well combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Scoop mixture into 1 tablespoon portions and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Using your hands, gently shape into round bites. Place bites in a single layer in an air-tight food storage container; freeze for 1 hour until set.

Notes

This recipe can be made with other cereals. Substitute 2 cups organic cinnamon oat cereal (such as Kashi) or 2-1/2 cups of corn flakes cereal or rice flake cereal for the crisp rice cereal.
Bites can be stored in an airtight container and eaten straight from the freezer.
