Honey Crackles or Honey Joys are a kids party favourite! I can’t remember a Birthday party without them! They are so popular for that sweet crunch! The traditional version is just loaded with unnecessary Sugar. My version is simple and far healthier for your kids. No added Sugar is required at all.
This recipe is an idea from a friend who is a fabulous cook, she looked at the Honey Joy recipe posted on the Kellogg’s Cornflakes box and thought ‘why do they add sugar to this recipe! It is sweet enough’ Very True! No Sugar Honey Crackles are delicious.
You can buy low sugar cereals from most super markets and health food stores, always check the ingredients and percentage of sugar in the cereal. Select a low sugar version, they are sweet enough! I used Freedom Foods in this recipe, it is 6% sugar (some of which would come from the added sweetener and some from the corn).
Ingredients
Low Sugar Corn Flakes – 4 cups
Rice Syrup – 2 Tablespoons (or use sweetener of choice)
Butter – 100g or 1/2 cup coconut oil
Instructions
In a large saucepan melt the butter and rice syrup on medium until it starts to bubble up
Turn off heat and add 4 cups of low sugar cornflakes
Stir really well then spoon into patty pans on a tray
Bake at 150C for 10 minutes or until slightly golden
Allow to cool so they stay together
Store in airtight container for a week
