    Why use Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®?

    As the first crisped rice cereal, Kellogg’s® Rice Krispies® has been bringing families together in the kitchen for over 80 years.

    To experience the timeless flavor, make your Rice Krispies Treats® squares with the original Rice Krispies® brand cereal.

    Where to buy


1. In shallow dish stir together eggs, milk, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Dip bread slices into egg mixture, turning to generously coat both sides. Place on 15 x 10 x 1-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray.

2. Bake at 450° F about 11 minutes or until light brown.

3. Meanwhile, in small bowl stir together remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.

4. Turn bread slices. Sprinkle with KELLOGG'S RICE KRISPIES cereal. Lightly press cereal into bread. Sprinkle sugar-cinnamon mixture over cereal. Bake at 450° F about 5 minutes more or until light brown.

5. Top each slice with some banana slices. Serve with syrup.

I teach an earth science class after school. Each week I have a snack, story, activity and a craft all based around one theme. One week I was teaching about volcanoes. I couldn't decide on a snack that would be dairy free and nut free. Finally I went back to the basics. I made rice crispy treats, one of my all time favorite snacks. But instead of a simple square I formed the warm mixture into individual volcano shapes. I put a maraschino cherry in the mouth of the volcano and I brought strawberry syrup to drizzle down the side for lava. MMMMMMMMMM...they were outrageously delicious. I'm so glad rice crispy treats have always been there for me. Thanks Kelloggs
