Recipe: Trail Mix Cereal Bars

February 19, 2020 Katy Leave a Comment

We all like the original Rice Krispie treat version of cereal bars, and we’ve made those many times. Sometimes we don’t have crispy cereal, so we use Cheerios or Chex or a mixture of whatever kind of cereal we have on hand. We’ve never had a version we didn’t like!

But sometimes, I get bored with the original. So I started to wonder what would happen if I added extras to the basic cereal bar. And the trail mix cereal bars were born.

These bars still have the signature sticky sweet marshmallow flavor of the originals, but they’ve got a little added heft from some of our favorite trail mix ingredients. If you don’t like something we picked, switch it out for one of your favorite trail mix-y things! The possibilities are pretty open for this one, as long as you keep the same amounts.
