These are literally the PERFECT high protein snack! They taste just like rice krispy treats, but are packed with protein! They have about the same amount of protein as most of the protein bars you’ll find, but you can make this at home with three ingredients in under 5 minutes. High Protein “Rice” Krispy Treats might be my favorite high protein treat of all time!
Ingredients
- Edamame Protein Puffs – this is one of my favorite high protein ingredients ever! I haven’t been able to find it in stores yet, but you can buy it online. I buy the SmartforLife 3 pound bag on Amazon, and I’m now on my second bag because these High Protein Rice Krispy Treats are seriously addictive!
- Marshmallows – I always use the Dandies brand of vegan marshmallows; they are awesome! For this recipe, I like to use mini marshmallows because they melt quicker!
- Vegan Butter – my go-to brand is Miyoko’s but any vegan butter will work just great!
Instructions
- First, get a decently large pot and melt some butter in it. I like to keep the heat pretty low when making this.
- Once the butter is melted, add in the marshmallows. I recommend stirring continuously to avoid burning and/or sticking. They will start to melt and form a large goo collection.
- Once you have one massive marshmallow goo pit, add in the edamame puffs and stir well.
- Dump the High Protein Rice Krispy mixture into a 9 inch x 9 inch dish. I use a glass dish and never need to spray it with oil or anything to keep them from sticking. But if you’re concerned about sticking, spray some oil on the bottom and sides of your pan or line with parchment paper; better safe than sorry!
- Allow to cool for at least 15 minute, then cut into 9 even(ish) pieces and enjoy! 🙂

I didnt have a scale so i estimated the amounts. Still bomb tho!
That’s awesome; I’m glad you liked it!! Wasn’t sure what kind of volume measurement to use since the edamame puffs only showed a serving size in grams!
