One of my favorite things to eat pretty much year-round are s’mores. So when I found Honey Maid S’mores* at Hy-Vee, I was over-the-moon!! The look on the kid’s faces when I walked in with this told me everything I needed to know: I was the best mom, and they’d be eating cereal at my house rather than at school from now on! Hy-Vee has a huge selection of cereals everyone in the family will love. Who doesn’t love eating cereal for any meal of the day?!
When it was my turn to bring snacks for the Girl Scouts meeting… I wanted to get a little creative with things I had in my cupboard. These came out perfectly – they’re a bit nutty, very delicious, and reminds me of summer time bonfires. Honey Maid S’mores make this a super yummy breakfast or anytime snack.
Some notes on the recipe:
-I don’t recommend using steel-cut oats for these as they will be too hard for it
-Most Hy-Vees will carry Honey Maid S’mores
-You can really use any kind of nut butter in place of the peanut butter, or you can omit it entirely. You may need to adjust the liquid ratios
-I use unsweetened coconut flakes for the garnish, which can be found in the baking aisle. To toast them, just toss them in a pan for a few minutes, stirring constantly
