Ingredients

For The Dry Ingredients:

  • 4 cups gluten-free pretzels we like Snyder's gluten-free
  • 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • 1 ½ cups Cheerios cereal
  • 1 ½ cups Mixed nuts or peanuts or cashews*

For The Seasoning Sauce:

Instructions

  • Preheat The Oven & Prep Your Pan. Start by preheating the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet (13"x18," often called a half sheet pan) with parchment paper.
  • Combine The Dry Ingredients. In your largest large bowl, combine gluten-free pretzels, corn Chex, rice Chex, Cheerios, and Nuts. Stir to combine well, so everything is pretty evenly distributed.
  • Mix Up Your Seasoning Sauce. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in 15-second increments until fully melted and liquid. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir or whisk to combine until uniform and well blended.
  • Toss To Coat. Pour the seasoning sauce over the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Stir for at least a full minute, to really distribute the sauce well.
  • Spread Out. Turn the Chex mix mixture out onto your prepared pan and spread into an even layer.
  • Bake, Stir & Cool. Then, bake the Chex mix at 250 degrees F for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes for even browning. Allow the Chex mix to cool completely before storing (so that it's as dry as possible).
  • Serve Or Store. Then, dive in and serve immediately or place cooled Chex mix in an airtight container and store at room temperature up to 5 days. 

Notes

  • *For a nut-free option, omit the mixed nuts and add 3/4 cup additional pretzels and 3/4 cup additional Cheerios cereal.
  • **Prefer a little kick? Add a few dashes of hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper to your butter mixture before pouring it over the cereal.
