Ingredients
  

  • Rice cakes (plain, lightly salted, or multigrain)
  • Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy; natural or regular)
  • Optional toppings: Sliced banana, apple, or strawberries
  • Honey, maple syrup, or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate
  • Chia seeds, flaxseed, or hemp hearts
  • Cinnamon or a pinch of sea salt
  • Cocoa nibs or mini chocolate chips
  • Coconut flakes

Method
 

  1. Prep your base: Place one or two rice cakes on a plate. If they’re slightly stale, warm them in a low oven for 3–4 minutes to refresh the crunch.
  2. Stir the peanut butter: If using natural peanut butter, stir well to combine the oils so it spreads smoothly.
  3. Spread evenly: Add 1–2 tablespoons of peanut butter per rice cake. Spread to the edges to keep the toppings in place and get even flavor in every bite.
  4. Add something fresh: Top with sliced banana, apple, or strawberries for sweetness and a bit of juiciness.
  5. Boost the texture: Sprinkle chia seeds, hemp hearts, or cocoa nibs for crunch and nutrients.
  6. Finish with flavor: Drizzle a little honey or maple syrup, dust with cinnamon, or add a pinch of flaky salt if your peanut butter is unsalted.
  7. Serve right away: Enjoy while the rice cake is crisp and the toppings are fresh.
