Trader Joe’s just debuted its new Crispy Rice Cereal, which reimagines a classic pantry staple.
Not that long ago, Trader Joe's offered a Crisp Rice Cereal, which was pretty standard as far as puffed rice cereals go. However, Trader Joe's knew the product had more potential, which is why the brand revamped the recipe to creat the new Crispy Rice Cereal product. This versatile cereal is made from just five ingredients (rice, sugar, barley malt extract, salt, and mixed tocopherols) to create toasted, puffed rice cereal pieces. Because the cereal had such a simple flavor profile, it makes the perfect base for sweet treats like granola and dessert bars, or savory dishes like a cheesy potato casserole or a breadcrumb alternative for meatloaf.
