Honey Bunches Of Oats is a cereal that my family loves and I feel good about feeding them. Recently, I was asked by Honey Bunches of Oats to make their version of sweet and salty no-bake clusters using their cereal. I’ve always loved been obsessed by no-bakes so I had to give it a try. If you like sweet and salty treats, you’ll love these. They are delicious! You have to make these to experience this chocolatey, honey, crunchy goodness for yourself!
Here’s the recipe and it makes 2 dozen clusters. You can thank me later! : )
Ingredients:
- – 1 cup sugar
- – 2 tablespoons cocoa
- – 1/4 cup butter
- – 1/4 cup milk
- – 1/2 cup reduced fat peanut butter
- – 1 teaspoon vanilla
- – 1 1/2 cup Honey Bunches of Oats Honey Roasted Crunch
- – 1 cup pretzels
- – 1/2 cup peanuts
Directions:
- In a heavy saucepan bring to a boil sugar, cocoa, butter and milk. Let boil for 1 minute then add peanut butter, vanilla, peanuts, pretzels and cereal.
- On a baking sheet coated with waxed paper, drop mixture by 2 Tablespoon scoops. Place sheet in the refrigerator until the clusters are cooled and hardened. When ready, gently pull clusters off of the waxed paper. Store clusters in the refrigerator.
This is a great treat to make for a summer picnic or cook out. The prep time was only 15 minutes and from start to finish they were ready in an hour. If you have young kiddos at home, this is a great recipe to let them help with because there aren’t any raw ingredients that they couldn’t eat. I know I’ll be making these again soon and next time I’ll have my daughter help me. She loves to measure and mix. I love simple recipes that I can make with my little “helper.” If you give this a try, let me know how you like it!
