Coconut Oil Rice Crispy Treats are dairy-free sweets with just three ingredients. Coconut oil, one bag of marshmallows, and Rice Krispie cereal.
There's something nostalgic about a rice Krispie treats. They bring me right back to when I was a little girl.
I love these delectable-gooey treats, but I don't always want to buy the prepackaged ones. Most homemade recipes have just a couple of ingredients, but butter is one of them.
I decided to use coconut oil in place of butter, and these treats turned out even better than I thought they would!

Since they don’t have butter, does that make them shelf stable?

Yum! These look sooo good, Jenna! Love that they're dairy-free-- the coconut oil is a great sub for the loads of butter you normally find in these treats. I'll be making these soon!
