Granola On A Cloud

• 2 cups puffed rice cereal (like Arrowhead Mills - NOT toasted rice-krispies)
• 1/4 cup brown rice syrup; can sub with agave (use more or less to suit your sweet tooth level)
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 3 tablespoons coconut oil
• pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
• 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, raw or toasted (or nuts, or any other seeds - or leave out)
• 1 tablespoon coconut sugar or brown sugar

1. Heat up a sturdy, large saucepan and melt the coconut oil on low heat. Add the brown rice syrup, honey, coconut sugar (or brown sugar), vanilla extract and salt. Stir. Add seeds/nuts, if using, and any other stir-ins you want.
2. Add the puffed rice cereal to the saucepan (still on low heat). Mix with wooden ladle until decently coated. Note that not all the puffed rice will be drenched in syrup - syrup weighs down clouds! But don't worry, it's still gonna be good. (And if it isn't, just add more syrup to your taste and stir away. No-one will judge!)
3. Remove from stove and transfer immediately to a bowl or plate. Let cool before breaking into chunks (if you can wait until it cools!). Store in airtight container.
