Rice Krispie Treats

[Kibbie]

I have been asked to bring Rice Krispie treats to a Church thing (I use my grandmas old recipe and its soooo good)

I want to make the gluten free so that my daughter can enjoy them too. Anyone know of a gluten-free Krispie cereal?

This is not going to be helpful, sorry I cannot remember the name of the gluten-free rice krispie like cereal. I know it says gluten-free on it and it is very similar to the real thing. I have used it numerous times to make treats and they turned out great. I am sure someone helpful will come along with the name!

Erewhon (sp?) and Barbara's both make gluten-free crispy rice cereals. They're easy to find in the Northwest, not sure where you are.

Here's a great recipe:

Cocoa coconut Crispy Treats

40 marshmallows

1/4 c. butter or margarine

6 c. Post Cocoa Pebbles (gluten-free as of today . . . though things change sometimes)

1/2 c. (or more) flaked coconut

Melt and stir marshmallows and margarine over medium heat. When melted, remove from heat. Stir in coconut and cocoa pebbles. Press flat on a buttered cookie sheet. Cut and enjoy! (*The longer you cook the marshmallows, the less gooey the finished product will be.)

They are really good . . . they taste like the Girl Scout Samoa cookies!

I use kinnikinnick crispies. www.kinnikinnick.com

You can also make them with Perky's Nutty Rice. (A cross between rice crispies and grapenuts)

I use Crispy Rice cereal - tastes just like Rice kripsies, only according to kids and his friends they are way better!

Natures Path is the company name

Erewhon Crispy Brown Rice cereal is very very very close to the real thing!!!!!! They make a gluten free and a gluten containing version - make sure you pick up the right box - it says gluten free on the front of the box. It makes great rice krispie treats. Yummmy!

If you need to get something quickly, you can always use Cocoa Pebbles--they are gluten free and CHOCOLATE!!!!

Erewhon also makes Rice Twice, but it has honey in it so you might not want to use that for rice krispies.

Post Fruity Pebbles are also currently still gluten-free, so you can use those too for a fruity crispy treat.

Cocoa pebbles are gluten-free?!?! The kind with Fred and Barney?! Please tell me this hasn't changed.. it makes my day !

I just had coco pebbles this morning for breakfast. just check the box but they use just rice.

Cocoa Pebbles make a fabulous crispy treat!

I just made Rice Krispie treats with the Barbara's Brown Rice Krispies, and they taste great, but the rice Krispies are much darker then the regular rice krispies are. So the appearance is different, but not the taste.

There's an amaranth cereal that is very much like rice crispies, only the shape was different last I saw them. Still, when made into the treats I wouldn't doubt if nobody noticed, since they are all gooey and stuff. As I recall, they were the same sort of color, and had the crunch too. I remember this because they did the snap-crackle-pop thing in milk also. Sorry I don't remember the brand name, but I seem to recall a sunrise on the box, and that may have been part of the name. I haven't looked for them in ages though.
