# How to Make It:
01 -
Set oven to 120°C. Prepare a large roasting pan, or line a large baking sheet with parchment paper if a roasting pan is unavailable.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, bagel chips, and rye chips until evenly combined.
03 -
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and seasoned salt until fully blended.
04 -
Gradually pour the seasoning mixture over the dry snack mix, stirring continuously to ensure even distribution and coverage.
05 -
Transfer the coated mix to the prepared roasting pan or baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even toasting.
06 -
Remove from oven and allow to cool on parchment paper or paper towels for 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container once completely cooled.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Add the seasoning mixture gradually, stirring between additions, to guarantee thorough and even coating without soggy clusters.
02 -
Swap snack mix components as desired but ensure to maintain equivalent volumes to preserve proper seasoning balance.
03 -
Use small pretzels so the snack mix incorporates more evenly and remains easier to serve.
04 -
For optimal texture, break bagel and rye chips into small uniform pieces before combining.
