PB&J (Peanut Butter and Jelly) Rice Cakes
Table of Contents
Do you ever struggle with snack ideas for your little ones?
I always find my toddler wanting a snack all the time, and I really don’t want to give him sugary sweet treats!
One of my favourite things to do is to create healthy snack options for my toddler and for all the family.
My son loves a rice cake, so I thought why not try to recreate a rice cake snack that was easy and fun to make, that he will enjoy!
I have used rice cake from Sainsbury’s linked below, as these have no added salt which is great!
I love using peanut butter powder when I’ve run out of peanut butter! I find that the powders work the best to grip to the rice cakes!
These are so tasty and are a great snack option for your little ones!
Ingredient information
Rice cake - The rice cakes I use are these ones from Sainsbury’s, These are great as they have no added salt! Gluten free too!
Peanut butter powder - I bought this from Holland and Barrett, it’s great to have in the cupboard if you ever run out of peanut butter, and it’s great for using in recipes like this!
Freeze dried strawberries - I only discovered these a few years ago, and they are so effective and delicious in so many recipes!
Butter - I always use unsalted butter as there is no added salt.
Serving suggestion
These are obviously great on their own, but you could serve with some Greek style yogurt for dipping as a substantial snack or some strawberry purée for an extra strawberry hit!
Storage instructions
The rice cakes can be kept in an airtight container in a dry spot for up to 5 days. If you wanted to keep them in the fridge you could too!
Recipe | Peanut Butter & Jelly Rice Cakes
Makes 4 rounds of snacks (depending on little one’s hunger.)
4 large rice cakes (I use Sainsbury’s ‘be good to yourself’ rice cakes as they have no salt)
2 tablespoons peanut butter powder
2 tablespoons freeze dried strawberries, blitzed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Firstly melt the butter in a microwave friendly dish and microwave for 30 seconds or until melted.
Break up your rice cakes how you want to a mixing bowl, I break them up randomly.
Add in the melted butter, peanut butter powder and strawberry powder and mix!
That’s it!
Hope you and your family enjoy!
Recipe notes
You can use your dairy free butter of choice, to make these dairy free and vegan friendly! I would suggest the Flora unsalted vegan butter block.
