- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup honey
- 3 cups Cheerios cereal
Instructions
- Combine peanut butter and honey: In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the peanut butter and honey until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Be careful not to let it boil.
- Mix in Cheerios: Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the Cheerios cereal, ensuring they are evenly coated with the peanut butter and honey mixture.
- Form the bites: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined tray or press the mixture evenly into a lined baking dish for bars.
- Refrigerate: Place the tray or dish in the refrigerator and chill for 15–20 minutes, or until the bites are firm and set.
- Serve and store: Enjoy these no-bake snack bites immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the fridge to keep fresh.
Notes
- Do not boil the peanut butter and honey mixture as it may alter the texture.
- You can press the mixture into a baking dish to make bars instead of spoonful bites.
- Store the bites in the refrigerator for up to one week for best freshness.
- For a crunchy variation, add a handful of chopped nuts or seeds.
- If peanut allergies are a concern, substitute peanut butter with almond or sunflower seed butter.
