Ingredients

  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 8 ounces mini pretzels I use Snyder's of Hanover Snap pretzels
  • 8 ounces cheese crackers I use the Extra Big Cheez-its

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200°F.
  • In a medium bowl or 2-cup measuring cup, mix together the vegetable oil, dry ranch seasoning, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.
  • Put the pretzels and cheese crackers in a large baking pan such as a roasting pan. Pour the vegetable oil mixture over the pretzels and coat well.
  • Bake pretzels uncovered in the oven for 2 hours. Stir every 30 minutes to make sure the seasoning coats the snack mix well.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on a baking rack.

Notes

This snack mix will keep in an airtight container on the counter for a week. They honestly could keep well for longer, but my batch has never made it that far.
