Peanut Butter S’mores Cereal Bars (High-Protein, No-Bake + Lightly Toasted)
These peanut butter s’mores cereal bars are chewy, lightly toasted, and made with Magic Spoon cereal for a high-protein, easy snack. Perfect for meal prep, lunchboxes, or a sweet treat that keeps you full.
Ingredients
- 3 cups Magic Spoon s’mores cereal
- 1/2 cup natural no-sugar peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips semi-sweet or dark
- 1 cup mini marshmallows divided
Let's Make It
- Line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang for easy removal later.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the peanut butter and honey just until smooth and pourable. You don’t want this boiling — just warm enough to stir easily. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and salt.
- In a large bowl, add the Magic Spoon cereal and half of the mini marshmallows. Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the top and gently fold until everything is evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan and press it in firmly. This step really matters — press harder than you think so the bars hold together nicely once cut.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips and remaining marshmallows evenly over the top and gently press them in just a bit.
- Place the pan in a 400°F oven for 5–7 minutes, just until the marshmallows puff and turn lightly golden on top. Keep a close eye on them — you want toasted, not burned.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing into bars.
