Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups mini pretzels
- 3 cups fish-shaped crackers
- 1 cup cheddar cheese crackers
- 1 cup roasted peanuts (optional)
- 4 tablespoons butter, unsalted
- 1.5 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika (optional, for a smoky flavor)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini pretzels, fish-shaped crackers, cheddar cheese crackers, and roasted peanuts (if using).
In a small microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, melt the butter until fully liquid. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika (if using), salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if desired). Mix well to create the seasoning sauce.
Pour the seasoning sauce evenly over the pretzel and cracker mixture. Using a large spatula, gently toss the mixture to ensure all pieces are well coated with the sauce.
Spread the seasoned mixture in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting and avoid burning.
Once the mixture is golden and fragrant, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet.
Transfer the cooled Pretzel Fish Mix to an airtight container for storage. Serve immediately or enjoy within 1-2 weeks for the best crunch and flavor!
