3/4 cup
unsalted peanut butter

1 teaspoon
fine-grain sea salt
-
1 tablespoon
agar agar flakes
-
4 cups
unsweetened (or lightly sweetened) crisp brown rice cereal

1 cup
nuts, toasted (** Optional)
Directions
-
Line two muffin tins with about 18 muffin/cupcake wrappers, and set aside.
-
Combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, salt, and agar flakes in a large saucepan over low heat and stir constantly until smooth, hot, melted, and bubbling just a bit.
-
Add the cereal and 3/4 cup of the nuts (if using), and stir until well coated.
-
Spoon two or three heaping Tbsp of the mix into each muffin wrapper and press into place with the back of a spoon.

Alternately, if you want krispy squares, you can transfer it to an 8 by 8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining nuts and refrigerate until completely cool
