Ingredients
- 4.5 ounces gluten-free apple and cinnamon rings cereal
- 4.5 ounces gluten-free crisp rice cereal
- 3 ounces dried cherries, finely chopped
- 1 ounce bake-dried apple chips, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal
- 2 ounces butter or shortening
- 1 bag marshmallows
- Non-stick gluten-free cooking spray
Directions
- Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray, then put it aside. In a large bowl, combine the cereals, dried cherries, apple chips, and ground flaxseed meal, tossing until everything is evenly mixed.
- Set a large pot over medium-low heat and melt the butter. Add the marshmallows and stir with a wooden spoon the whole time, until they’re fully melted and the mixture looks smooth.
- Pour in the cereal mixture and work fast, stirring until the marshmallow mixture coats the cereal. Scrape everything into the prepared pan. With your hands or a piece of parchment paper, press it into an even layer.
- Chill for two hours or overnight. Slice into 14 bars.
