"Lighter and healthier snack mix with a sweet and buttery glaze. Perfect for lunchboxes or office snacks."
Ingredients:
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 4 cups Corn Chex™ cereal
  • 3 cups Rice Chex™ cereal
  • 2 cups pretzel knots
  • 2/3 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons light-color corn syrup
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 cup dried sweetened orange-flavor cranberries
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries, blueberries, or cherries
Instructions:
  • Prepare a large piece of foil by lightly spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. In a large roasting pan, combine cereals, pretzels, and almonds.
  • 1. Preheat your oven to 300°F. In a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. Heat until it just starts to bubble. Let it gently cook for 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat and mix in baking soda. Pour over the cereal mix and stir gently to coat evenly.
  • After 15 minutes in the oven, give the cereal mixture a good stir and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Once done, mix in the dried fruit, then spread it out on foil to cool. Store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
