Dairy Free Rice Krispie Treats
Bring some colour to any party with allergy friendly rice krispie treats. Better than the store bought alternatives and so satisfying to make. Easy gluten free and vegan option.
Equipment
- 9 x 13 Cake Pan (you can use a different size - see note)
- Saucepan
- Wooden Spoon (can also use a silicone spatula)
Ingredients
- 90 grams Plant Based Butter (6.5 tbsp)
- 400 grams Mini Marshmallows (Approx 8.75 US Cups)
- 170 grams Rice Cereal (6 US Cups)
- 50 grams Sprinkles (4 tbsp)
Instructions
- Grease and line a 9 x 13 pan or dish.
- In a large saucepan, melt 90g of butter. Once melted, fold in 3/4 of the mini marshmallows and continue to stir until melted.
- Turn off the heat and stir in 170g of rice cereal. Add in the sprinkles and remaining marshmallows and gently fold. Do not overmix as it will cause the sprinkles to bleed. We also want to ensure that the marshmallows do not fully melt.
- Spread the rice krispie mix in the dish and allow it to firm up completely. This may take anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the humidity in your kitchen.
- Remove the slab of rice krispie treats from the dish and cut up in to squares.

Notes
- If you do not have a 9 x 13 dish, you can use any other size. For smaller dishes, your treats will be thicker, for larger dishes, they will be thinner.
- I used a 400g bag of mini marshmallows. If you can only buy larger bags, use all of them. You can never have too many in rice krispie treats!
- To veganise this recipe, use vegan mini marshmallows. Ensure that your sprinkles are also vegan (a lot use shellac, which is not vegan friendly).
- Use gluten free cereal if you are gluten intolerant.
- To store, cover with parchment paper and store at room temperature. These treats will last for at least 1 week. No need to refrigerate.
