I love a good snack mix. I make The World's Best Snack Mix, Texas Trash and Firecrackers on a regular basis.
I love flowing Kelsey at Little Bits of Real Food. I have followed her for years -she is a hoot! She recently posted this Apple Cinnamon Chex Mix which is right up my ally. I just made it a second time yesterday. Everyone loves it!
I wanted to make it gluten free for my gluten-free friends but I couldn't find a gluten-free version of a graham flavored cereal. I found a cinnamon toast flavor but wanted more of a graham flavor. I just made it as is. SO YUMMY!
Apple Cinnamon Chex Mix - adapted from Little Bits of Real Food
6 cups Rice Chex
4 cups Golden Grahams
2 cups pretzels
1 cup pecan halves
2 cups dried apple chips
2 sticks butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Spray a large foil roasting pan with cooking spray. Add in the rice Chex, Golden Grahams, pretzels, pecan halves and apple chips. In a sauce pan, melt the butter and brown sugar together to form a syrup. Bring to a slight boil and then pour over the cereal mixture. Toss gently to coat. In a small bowl, mix together the white sugar with cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle this mixture of the coated cereal mixture. Gently toss to coat. Bake at 275 for 45 minutes - stirring every 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Store in an airtight container!
