I’m a pretty big fan of peanut butter recipes! Here’s a few of my favourites: Or you can drop them into cupcake liners. Then drop them onto a parchment lined baking sheet. If you start to smell toasty peanut butter, stop the microwave.Īdd the Cheerios to the peanut butter and honey mixture and stir them until they’re coated. Microwaving is definitely a lot easier, but you have to make sure you heat it up long enough to solidify, but not so long that it burns.Īnd it CAN burn. You can make the peanut butter and honey mixture in a small pot on the stove, or you can use a microwave safe bowl. As long as you have enough peanut butter and honey mixture to cover the Cheerios it will work out just fine!
Or if you prefer less sweetness, you can reduce the amount of honey slightly (increase the peanut butter slightly to make up for it). If you like a little extra sweetness, you can make them with honey nut Cheerios. This is one of those recipes that you can really personalize for your own tastes. Cheerios (I used plain, but I’ve seen them done with Honey Nut as well).Peanut butter (I used smooth Kraft peanut butter).

PEANUT BUTTER CHEERIO BALLS HOW TO
Check out our video for how to make peanut butter cereal bites: Just keep in mind that if they didn’t set properly, they will soften up again after being taken out of the fridge. Or you can store them in the fridge – even the most gooey cereal bites will harden up in the fridge. Tips: Dropping them into cupcake liners is a great way to make them easy to pick up. The fourth time I made them, I added an extra 30 seconds of microwaving time and they turned out beautifully! So that’s the recipe I’ve added below! Microwaves vary, so if you chose to microwave them, the time you’ll need could be different from mine. Peanut butter will burn in the microwave! The third time I made them I made half the recipe, but doubled the microwaving time. The honey needs to be heated long enough to reach the point of being candied.
The second time I heated the mixture in the microwave for 1 minute and while they were firm enough to pick up with my hands, they were still a little gooey. Great method, but it uses more dishes, so I was looking for something simpler. The first time I boiled the peanut butter and honey mixture on the stove over low heat for about 2 minutes – and they hardened perfectly. I’ve been reading a lot of recipes for these peanut butter cereal bites online, and a lot of people seem to have issues with getting them to set and be firm. I tested different methods for making them and I finally got mine to work out perfectly! So I can now say that (at least for me), the recipe at the end of this post works, and they set perfectly well for me. Or they’re a fun breakfast if you’re on the run! Peanut butter has lots of protien, so they really do make a great afternoon snack to curb your appetite. Yum! I just can’t help myself! I pushed off my lunch until almost 2pm because I was so full. I’ve eaten 4 (or is it 5 now?) of them since I made them this morning. (I just licked my fingers so I could type this.) These peanut butter cereal bites are sooooo good!
