Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Raw mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, pecans, etc.)
- 1.5 cups Mini pretzels
- 2 cups Chex cereal (any flavor)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese crackers
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed nuts, mini pretzels, Chex cereal, and cheddar cheese crackers.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the seasoning mixture over the snack mix in the large bowl. Use a spatula or your hands to gently toss everything until the mix is evenly coated.
Spread the coated snack mix evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Ensure everything is in a single layer for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
Remove the sheet from the oven and let the mix cool completely on the baking sheet. The snack mix will become crunchier as it cools.
Transfer the cooled mix into an airtight container or serving bowl and enjoy. Store leftover mix at room temperature for up to one week.
