Gluten Free Rice Krispie Treats
Gluten Free Rice Krispie Treats are the perfect snack or dessert! Kids love them and so do adults. This is an easy gluten free dessert idea when you are having a party or serving a group meal.
I decided to try Gluten Free Rice Krispies cereal. I am a HUGE fan of regular Rice Krispies so I was interested to see how I would like the Gluten Free version. I am sad to say that I am NOT a fan of the Gluten Free version at all. They did not have the same taste or consistency at all. I am going to have to give Gluten Free Rice Krispies two thumbs down for breakfast cereal.
However, I didn’t want to waste the box of cereal so I decided to make Gluten Free Rice Krispie Treats with them and was THRILLED that neither my son or I could tell a huge difference! So I would not use them for breakfast but I would use them to make treats!
Be sure to give this recipe a try. Though I am not a fan of the Gluten Free Rice Krispie Cereal I was a huge fan of this easy dessert. If you are hosting a party at school and need a gluten free treat this is a great option.
