Back to School Snack Mix

Like I was saying the other day, I wanted to change up the caramel apple snack mix and make it more BTS!

So I did, it's half gone, the kids are loving it!

3C Crispix (or chex, whichever you like)

2tsp. butter

cinnamon

first I melt the butter, while it is melting I measure out the cereal

once butter is melted stir it into cereal.

spread cereal out on foil lined cookie sheet

sprinkle with cinnamon

put under broiler a few minutes to make it crunchy (but not burned, like I did the first time)

While the cereal is cooling I mix

2C pretzels (I used sticks cause they reminded me of pencils)

1C peanut butter chips

1C freeze dried apple pieces

3/4C dried cranberries

 ( I wanted to use freeze dried strawberries or raspberries but couldn't find them at the store I was at)

I also forgot to add 1/2C sunflower seed kernels

Once the cereal is cooled I mix everything together!

Keep it in an airtight container so it doesn't get icky!

I am sure I will have to make this again a few times before school starts, but once school starts, I am going to use some free printables and make some cute labels for it!
