Notes

Nutritional information is only an approximate guideline. Calculations will vary according to the ingredients you use and your cooking methods.
*When I first wrote this recipe in 2016 we were all vegetarian and two of us were about to go vegan. Four of us have now switched to veganism so to ensure our crispy cakes are still on the menu I adapt this recipe just a teeny bit.
  • Kellogg's Rice Krispies aren't vegan as they contain Vitamin D3 derived from sheep. I use puffed rice cereal from my local wholefood shop instead. Some of the supermarket own brands are also suitable for vegans, do check ingredient labels.
  • The arrival of vegan chocolate mini eggs on the high street made me grin. These little pastel beauties were long a tradition of our Easter celebrations and I'm glad they're back on the menu!
