Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 4 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 2 cups Wheat Chex cereal
- 2 cups Mini pretzel twists
- 1.5 cups Mixed nuts
- 1 cup Bagel chips (broken into bite-sized pieces)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Seasoned salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex, Corn Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzel twists, mixed nuts, and bagel chips. Stir gently to evenly mix the ingredients.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave in 15-second intervals until fully melted.
Whisk the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, and cayenne pepper (if using) into the melted butter until fully combined.
Slowly pour the butter mixture over the cereal mixture, tossing gently as you go to ensure even coating. Stir everything together until all pieces are lightly coated.
Transfer the coated mix to a large baking sheet, spreading it out into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting.
Remove the Chex Mix from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The mixture will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, transfer the Chex Mix to an airtight container or resealable bag for storage. Enjoy!
