Line a muffin tin with 12 muffin cups.

Combine the oats, brown rice crisps, chia seeds, cashew pieces, dried cherries, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Stir to combine evenly.

Heat the maple syrup, cashew butter, honey and vanilla extract in a small pot over medium low heat. Stir often until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.

Pour the cashew butter mixture over the dry mixture, and stir with a wooden spoon to combine evenly. Add in the chocolate chips, and stir to combine once again.

Spoon the mixture evenly into each granola cup. Refrigerate for at least an hour before eating.
