Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 4 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 2 cups mini pretzel twists
  • 2 cups bagel chips
  • 1 cup cashew pieces

Seasoning Mixture

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill weed
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle juice
  • 1 (1 oz) package ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper to prepare for baking the mix evenly.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine Corn Chex, Rice Chex, mini pretzel twists, bagel chips, and cashew pieces, ensuring an even distribution of all components.
  3. Prepare Seasoning Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, dried dill weed, garlic powder, dill pickle juice, ranch seasoning mix, and white vinegar until fully blended to create a flavorful coating.
  4. Coat the Dry Ingredients: Pour the seasoning mixture over the dry ingredients and stir gently but thoroughly to evenly coat all pieces, ensuring the dill pickle flavor reaches every bite.
  5. Bake: Spread the coated mixture evenly out on the prepared baking sheets. Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through baking to promote uniform crispness and prevent burning.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the baked mix from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheets. Once cool, transfer the Dill Pickle Chex Mix to an airtight container to maintain freshness until serving.

Notes

  • For best results, stir the mix halfway through baking to ensure even cooking and crispness.
  • Ensure the mix has completely cooled before storing to prevent sogginess.
  • You can adjust the amount of dill pickle juice to control the intensity of the pickle flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week for optimal freshness.
  • Feel free to substitute cashew pieces with almonds or peanuts if desired.
