Description

This is the traditional, savory recipe for homemade Chex Party Mix, perfect for gatherings or everyday snacking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 cups mixed Chex cereal (Rice, Corn, Wheat)
  • 1 cup mixed nuts (pecans, almonds, cashews)
  • 1 cup small pretzel twists
  • 1 cup bagel chips
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a very large bowl, combine the Chex cereal, nuts, pretzels, and bagel chips. Set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  4. Pour the butter mixture evenly over the cereal mixture. Gently stir until all pieces are lightly coated.
  5. Spread the coated mixture onto two large, rimmed baking sheets in a single layer.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir the mixture on each sheet.
  7. Return to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes, stirring once halfway through the second baking period.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets before serving or storing. The mix will crisp as it cools.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, use only gluten-free Chex cereal and ensure your Worcestershire sauce is certified gluten-free.
  • You can substitute up to 2 cups of the cereal mix with other small crackers or cereal pieces you prefer.
  • Store the cooled mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
