Healthier Monster Cereal Bars
These Monster Cereal Bars are a Healthier Halloween treat that are easy to make, gluten-free, vegan, and require no baking!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- ¼ cup 100% pure maple syrup
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1 tablespoon cacao powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups gluten-free Cheerios or Whole O's
- Candy eyeballs
- Dried apricots, for teeth
Instructions
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, add coconut oil and chocolate chips and microwave for about 1-1.5 minutes until the chocolate chips are melted. Stir with a spoon to help all the chocolate chips melt.
- Add maple syrup, almond butter, cacao powder, and vanilla extract to the bowl and stir to combine.
- Next, add the cereal and mix until all of the cereal is coated in the chocolate mixture.
- Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or spray it with avocado oil. Pour chocolate cereal into the baking dish and use a spoon to flatten all of the cereal down.
- Place cereal bars in the fridge for at least one hour. Then cut them into squares or rectangles depending on how large you'd like your bars. Add candied eyeballs and dried apricot mouths (or whatever toppings you'd like!) and serve!
