Growing up we camped for our summer vacations. I loved it, we have lots of cousins we played with and always lots of yummy food. My grandma would bring treats she’d made and a sweet coconut cereal treat was always one of my favorites. Well, I’ve changed up the ingredients to make it with ingredients we have on hand, like honey instead of Corn Syrup. It is still definitely a treat! In fact, we like this version even better! Sweetened with honey and coconut oil.

This is a no bake treat that is so easy to make but everyone will be asking you for the recipe after just one bite!

This yummy cereal recipe is a sweet, chewy, and crispy snack! Made with rice and corn chex, golden grahams, almonds, cashews and coconut, and a syrup that is not overly gooey!

You’ll start by putting all the dry ingredients in a bowl. You really could end here, my family was standing around this bowl sneaking little handfuls. How can you go wrong with this line up of ingredients?! PS- love this extra large bowl to mix-up the ingredients!

Then you’ll make the syrup with the coconut oil, honey, salt and the star of the show…almond extract! We love the flavor this adds. The syrup isn’t overly sweet and adds the perfect amount of hold to our cereal clusters.

You’ll pour the syrup over the cereal and make sure to stir really well, luckily it doesn’t harden very quick so you’ll have plenty of time to make sure its all evenly coated.

This recipe makes enough for two cookie sheets. Feeds a crowd!

Eat it up right then, or store in an airtight container. When we make this as a snack I just set out little bowls that we can scoop up our cereal cluster treats to snack from.
