Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 4 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 2 cups Wheat Chex cereal
- 2 cups Mini pretzels
- 1.5 cups Mixed nuts or peanuts
- 1 cup Butter
- 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried dill
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex, Corn Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, and nuts. Mix gently to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Once the butter is fully melted, stir in the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried dill. Mix until the seasoning is well combined with the butter.
Pour the seasoned butter mixture over the cereal mix in increments, stirring gently after each addition to ensure the coating is evenly distributed.
Spread the coated mixture evenly on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring the mixture every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting.
Once the mix is golden and crisp, remove it from the oven and let it cool to room temperature on the baking sheet.
Transfer the cooled mix to an airtight container or serve immediately. Enjoy your Ranch Style Chex Mix!
