Peanut Butter and Chocolate Rice Bubble Bars



Putting a spin on a childhood classic… the rice bubble bars! These ones are made with peanut butter and less refined ingredients, making them a little bit better for you. The peanut butter and chocolate make for a tasty combination, perfect for a sweet little something after lunch or for an afternoon snack.

Ingredients

  • 70g Brown Rice Puffs
  • 100g Chocolate Quinoa Pearls
  • 200g Peanut Butter
  • 130g Brown Rice Syrup
  • 2 tbs Coconut Oil
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 190g Dark Chocolate
  • Maldon Sea Salt (flaky)

Instructions

  • Prepare a square baking tin by lining it with baking paper. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, place the peanut butter, brown rice syrup, 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and the vanilla extract over low-medium heat. Mix regularly and bring to a gentle simmer. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
  • Place your rice puffs and chocolate pearls in a large bowl and pour over the peanut butter mixture. Mix well with a spatula, ensuring that the mixture is all over the puffs. The chocolate coating on the pearls will start to melt but it’s part of the magic!
  • Place the coated puffs into your prepared baking tin making sure to level the mixture and press it down firmly. You can use your hands, then the bottom of a glass tumbler to really push it down – don’t be shy and push firmly as this will help your bake to stick together.
  • Melt the dark chocolate and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in the microwave or over low heat. When melted, pour the chocolate over the puffs and spread all the way to the edges. Sprinkle a little flaky sea salt all over.
  • Place in the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the baking tin, cut into squares and it’s ready to share. Enjoy! :)
