I'm not a fan of too-sweet and salty cereal mixes, but this recipe caught my attention. And it tastes just as good as it looks. My husband said it's the best trailmix he'd ever tasted. Wonderful recipe for colder weather and football parties. Read more . Recipe and photo from /recipes. (I've corrected the brown sugar amount from my earlier posting.)
Ingredients:
4-5 cups wheat chex or other small wheat squares cereal
1 cup unsalted (or salted) almonds
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 tsp cinnamon
dash chili powder
1 cup dried apples
1/2 cup yogurt raisins (or more)
Directions:
1. Chop apples. In casserole dish, mix cereal and almonds.
2. In microwavable container, microwave butter, sugar, syrup, and spices uncovered on High for 2 min., stirring after 1 min., until mixture is boiling; stir.
3. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until more evenly coated.
4. Microwave uncovered on High 3 min., stirring and scraping bowl after each min.
5. Stir in apples; microwave uncovered on High about 2 min. or until apples just begin to brown on edges.
6. Spread on waxed paper to cool, about 5 min.
7. Pour into large bowl; stir in raisins. Or you can add the raisins while the cereal mix is still warm, melting the yogurt coating a bit, that was tasty.
8. Delicious - and autumn-tasting!
