Ingredients

  • 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 4 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • 2 cups Pretzel sticks
  • 1 cup Cashews
  • 1 cup Sliced almonds
  • 0.5 cup Golden raisins
  • 0.5 cup Butter
  • 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground coriander
  • 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex cereal, Corn Chex cereal, pretzel sticks, cashews, and sliced almonds. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and olive oil. Mix well until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the spiced butter mixture over the cereal and nut mixture. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.

Step 5

Spread the mixture out onto a large, rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper in an even layer.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the Chex Mix cool completely. The mixture will crisp up as it cools.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the golden raisins for a sweet pop of flavor.

Step 9

Transfer the Moroccan Crunch Chex Mix to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
