Execution
How to Make Crispix Chex mix recipe
Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven’s temperature to 250°F (120degC). The lower temperature helps to bake the cake gradually, allowing flavors to blend without burning.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl make a mixture of Crispix cereals, Chex miniature pretzels, Peanuts, as well as cheese crackers (if you are using). Mix gently until all ingredients are equally dispersed.
Prepare the Seasoning:
In a separate bowl that is microwave safe in a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in a separate bowl that is microwave-safe. When it’s melted, add the Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder. Add onions powder, chili and the seasoned salt.
Mix until the seasoning is completely blended with the butter.
Coat the Cereal Mix:
Gradually drizzle the butter spice mix over dry ingredients within the big bowl.
Mix the cereal mixture gently so that it evenly covers everything in the buttery flavor. Make sure not to smash the cereals when stirring.
Bake the Mix:
Sprinkle the cereal mix that has been coated on a large baking tray with an even layer.
Bake for one hour. Mix it up each 15 minutes, to make sure all the ingredients are evenly baked and crispy.
After baking, allow the mixture to rest for a while on the baking sheet prior to transfer it into an airtight jar.
Serve and Enjoy:
The Crispix Chex mix recipe is all set to enjoy! Serve it up in bowls as an appetizer for a gathering or put in tiny containers for snacking on the go.
