Ingredients

150 g (1/2 cup) Madame Labriski date puree
75 g (1/4 cup) natural almond butter
15 ml (1 tablespoon) pure almond extract
1 egg
40 g (2 cups) puffed rice, or 100 g (3 1/3 cups) puffed rice-style cereal
30 ml (2 tablespoons) chia seeds
25 g (1/4 cup) almond flour
75 g (3/4 cup) slivered almonds

7 steps

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a bowl, combine the date puree, natural almond butter, pure almond extract and egg.
Add the puffed rice (or puffed rice-style cereal), chia seeds, almond flour and slivered almonds and mix until combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat- otherwise, everything will stick.
Using a spoon, spread the mixture onto the baking sheet. Don’t be afraid to firmly press it down onto the baking sheet so the bars hold together.
Bake for about 15 minutes. A delightful aroma will soon sweep through the kitchen.
Let cool before slicing into bars or whichever fun shape you want.

History

On the heels of my Crunchy Energy bars comes this 2nd recipe for Madame Labriski chewy granola bar-style cereal bars: The Rice and Shine! These rice cereal bars are presented here in two different varieties: the first has almonds and the second has peanuts and chocolate. GLUTEN- and DAIRY-FREE, with NO ADDED SUGAR or FAT, they are super quick and easy to make, bursting with wholesomeness and provide a good dose of energy. Just try them, I’m sure you’ll be hooked. It’s time to Rice and Shine!

A source of fibre and pocket-sized energy, Labriski Rice and Shine bars are, as always, a 100% healthy snack. They’re great at any time of the day or night but the best time to eat one is when you really need that energy boost.
Making these Rice and Shine bars is yet another way of enjoying your Labriski treats.
Hahahaski!

*I experimented with two kinds of rice cereal: puffed rice-style cereal and organic Rice Krispies. Both versions are great, you just need to be careful because they don’t weigh the same.
