Rice cakes are delicious and healthy round crackers made from puffed rice. Whether you’re looking for an easy breakfast or a quick afternoon snack, there are all kinds of rice cake recipes you can try. From savory to sweet, the possibilities are endless! Try eating them with avocados, tomatoes, salmon, peanut butter, or cream cheese. The options are only limited to your imagination!

Eating Rice Cakes with Savory Toppings

  1. Spread cream cheese over the rice cake and top with salmon. Cream cheese and salmon are a popular and delicious flavour combination. Spread the cream cheese liberally over the rice cake and add pieces of smoked salmon. Season the rice cakes with salt and pepper to add extra flavour.
    • Leave the cream cheese out of the fridge for 10 minutes to make it easier to spread. Alternatively, purchase soft cream cheese - either plain or flavoured.
    • If you don’t like salmon, use cherry tomatoes, tuna, or shredded chicken instead.
  2. Cover a rice cake with tomato paste and cheese and bake it to make a pizza. Spread a thin layer of tomato paste over the rice cake and then sprinkle a small handful of your favourite grated cheese over the rice cake. Bake the rice cake for 10 minutes at 180 °C (356 °F).
    • Let the rice cakes cool for a few minutes before eating as the melted cheese will be burning hot.
    • Add your favourite pizza toppings to spice up this simple recipe. Basil, shredded chicken, olives, and mushrooms are delicious additions.
  3. Spread mashed avocado over your rice cake to create an easy snack. Avocado is one of the most popular toppings for rice cakes. Slice or mash the avocado and spread it over the rice cake. If desired, season the avocado with salt and pepper to bring out and enhance the flavours.
    • Sliced tomato and smoked salmon are delicious additions to this basic recipe.
  4. Place tomato, mozzarella, and basil on the rice cake if you love Italian food. Slice a tomato and spread it over the rice cake. Add a few basil leaves and sprinkle mozzarella over the rice cake. This delicious combination is a great way to create a healthy Italian snack.
    • To create a Mediterranean snack, replace the mozzarella with feta.
  5. Add a dollop of hummus and some sliced cucumber. Hummus is a healthy and delicious way to add flavour to your rice cake. Spread your favourite flavour of hummus over the rice cake and top with slices of cucumber. Season with salt and pepper to bring out the subtle flavours of the cucumber.
    • If you don’t have any cucumbers in your fridge, use tuna, shredded chicken, or tomatoes instead.

Adding Sweet Toppings

  1. Top the rice cake with peanut butter and bananas if you want a sweet treat. Spread a liberal coat of your favourite peanut butter over the rice cake. Thinly slice a banana and spread it over the peanut butter. This is a great option if you want a healthy but delicious dessert or snack.
    • If you don’t like bananas, substitute them for sliced strawberries or sultanas.
    • If you don’t like peanut butter, use a different seed or nut butter instead.
  2. Add ricotta cheese and blueberries to make a cheesecake. Who knew that cheesecake could be healthy! Simply cover the top of the rice cake with ricotta cheese and a layer of blueberries. Drizzle with runny honey to add extra sweetness.
    • If you don’t have any blueberries on hand, substitute them for strawberries or raspberries instead.
    • If you prefer, substitute the ricotta for a sweet flavoured cream cheese spread.
  3. Cover the rice cake with peanut butter and sliced apple. This combination is the perfect mixture of textures. The creamy peanut butter works perfectly with the crunchy apples. Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon over the top of the rice cakes to add extra flavour.
    • Substitute peanut butter for almond or cashew butter to mix up the flavour.
    • Sweet red apples work well for this option.

Eating Rice Cakes for Breakfast

  1. Spread peanut butter and jelly over your rice cake. Choose your favourite type of peanut butter and jelly and liberally cover your rice cakes. This is a tasty, easy, and low-calorie alternative to eating toast. Vary the type of jelly that you use to mix up the taste of this quick breakfast snack.
    • Strawberry or plum jam are delicious choices.
    • Choose between smooth or crunchy peanut butter.
  2. Cover your rice cakes with greek yoghurt and a sprinkling of granola. The protein in the yoghurt will help to keep you full throughout the morning. If you want to make the rice cakes sweeter, simply add a drizzle of golden syrup or maple syrup over the granola.
    • To add variation to this simple breakfast, add chia seeds and your favourite dried fruits.
  3. Place sauteed spinach and a poached egg on your rice cake. If you feel like eggs on toast, but are looking for a healthier option, you will love this recipe. Lightly saute the spinach and spread it over the rice cake. Poach an egg and place it on the wilted spinach. Season with salt and pepper to enhance the flavours of the egg and spinach.
    • Add sliced sauteed mushrooms and slices of tomatoes to add variation to this easy breakfast recipe.
  4. Spread Greek yoghurt over the rice cake and sprinkle with fresh berries. Greek yoghurt and berries are a delicious breakfast combination that have the added benefit of being incredibly nutritious. Liberally cover the rice cake with Greek yoghurt and a layer of your favourite berries.
    • Drizzle maple syrup over the rice cake to add extra sweetness.

Tips

  • Leftover rice cakes should be stored properly. Otherwise, they could become stale very fast.
