Ingredients
- 4 cups Chex cereal (any variety)
- 2 cups Pretzels
- 1 cup Mixed nuts (unsalted)
- 1 cup Honey
- 4 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzels, and mixed nuts. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the honey, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and kosher salt, stirring until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is fully dissolved (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Pour the honey glaze over the cereal, pretzel, and nut mixture. Gently toss with a spatula until everything is evenly coated.
Step 6
Spread the coated snack mix evenly onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Step 7
Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Step 8
Remove the snack mix from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. As it cools, it will become crisp.
Step 9
Once cooled, break the snack mix into clusters and store it in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
