Ingredients
For the mix
Corn Chex cereal
Toasted Oats cereal
Bugles Corn Chips
Goldfish crackers
Mini pretzels
Wasabi peas
For the syrup:
Butter
Sugar
Soy sauce
Organic maple syrup
Vegetable oil (or canola oil)
For the syrup:
1 stick butter (½ cup)
½ cup sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
½ cup organic maple syrup
¼ cup vegetable oil (or canola oil)
For the mix:
2 cups Corn Chex cereal
2 cups Toasted Oats cereal
2 cups Bugles Corn Chips
2 cups Goldfish crackers
2 cups mini pretzels
1 cup wasabi peas
1.7-ounce jar Nori Komi Furikake seasoning
Directions
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the sugar, soy sauce, maple syrup, and vegetable oil until well-combined. Remove from the heat, set aside and let cool.
Divide the cereals and snacks into two large baking trays lined with foil or parchment paper.
Evenly pour the syrup over the two trays and toss with the mix to thoroughly coat.
Evenly sprinkle in the entire jar of Furikake seasoning and mix well.
Bake in the oven for one hour, taking the pans out every 15 minutes to mix, to make sure it cooks evenly.
Remove from the oven and let cool before serving.
Notes
Make sure to toss the Chex mix thoroughly with the syrup so everything is coated well before baking.
I used two large baking trays for this recipe, but you can use two deep aluminum pans as well. Just make sure to toss the mixture every 15 minutes while baking.
If you're not serving this Furikake Chex Mix right away, you can store it in a tightly sealed container for up to two to three weeks.
