Seasoning Mix
- 1/2 cup olive oil (or melted unsalted butter)
- 1 ounce packet ranch dry seasoning mix
- 1 tsp mustard powder
- 1 tsp dill
- 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
Snack Mix
- 3 cups Goldfish Crackers
- 16 oz box Cheez-Its Duo Cheddar and Parmesan flavor
- 14.5 oz bag Bugles Corn Chips
- 3 cups Mini twisted pretzels (or pretzel sticks)
- 16 oz bag oyster crackers
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C) to prepare for baking the snack mix.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a large 15″x22″ rimmed sheet pan, or two smaller 11″x17″ sheet pans, with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Mix Seasonings: In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the olive oil, ranch seasoning packet, mustard powder, dill, and garlic powder until well combined.
- Combine Snacks: In a large mixing bowl, add the Goldfish crackers, Cheez-Its, Bugles corn chips, mini twisted pretzels, and oyster crackers. Toss gently.
- Coat Snack Mix: Pour the seasoned olive oil mixture over the snack mix. Stir thoroughly to ensure all pieces are evenly coated with the seasoning blend.
- Spread on Pan: Evenly spread the coated snack mix onto the prepared parchment-lined sheet pan(s) in a single layer to allow for even baking.
- Bake: Place the pan(s) in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. This helps to meld the flavors and crisp the snack mix.
- Cool and Store: Remove the pan(s) from the oven and allow the mix to cool completely on the pan. Once cooled, transfer the snack mix to an airtight container to store for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- You can substitute olive oil with melted unsalted butter for a richer flavor.
- Ensure the snack mix is spread in a single layer to allow even baking and crispness.
- Store the mix in an airtight container at room temperature for optimal freshness.
