Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 4 cups pumpkin Cheerios
  • 4 cups cinnamon Chex mix
  • 2 cups salted pretzels
  • 1½ cups sliced almonds
  • 1½ cups chopped pecans
  • 1½ cups mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup honey
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In an extra-large mixing bowl, thoroughly mix together the pumpkin Cheerios, cinnamon Chex mix, pretzels, sliced almonds, chopped pecans, mini marshmallows, white chocolate chips, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice until evenly distributed.
  3. Prepare the Syrup: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, maple syrup, and melted butter until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  4. Spread Mix on Baking Sheet: Pour the combined dry ingredients onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in an even layer for uniform baking.
  5. Add Syrup and Bake: Drizzle the honey, maple syrup, and butter mixture evenly over the Chex mix. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, keeping an eye on the mini marshmallows as they begin to toast and lightly brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the Chex mix cool for about 5 minutes to allow it to harden slightly. After cooling, transfer to a bowl and enjoy your crunchy, festive snack.

Notes

  • Use your largest mixing bowl to ensure all ingredients combine easily without spilling.
  • Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet to help it cool evenly and prevent clumping.
  • If you want to speed up the cooling and hardening process, you can place the baking sheet in the refrigerator after baking.
  • Do not overmix after baking to preserve the chunkiness and prevent breaking the cereals.
  • Be cautious watching the marshmallows during baking to avoid burning.
