Snack Mix Nuts Bolts Slow Cooker Recipes

SLOW COOKER NUTS AND BOLTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Get out your slow cooker and spray the inside with vegetable cooking spray.
• In a very large bowl, combine the cereals, nuts, crackers and pretzels. In microwave (or on stove) melt butter and mix in spices and Worcestershire. Pour over dry ingredients and stir gently to mix thoroughly.
• Place in the crockpot. Place a paper towel over top of the crockpot and place the lid on top. Cook on high for an hour, then remove the lid and stir and turn it down to low. Stir every 20 minutes or so to prevent burning.
• The mix will be done when you can see that all of the butter mixture has been absorbed and is dry.

SLOW COOKER NUTS AND BOLTS SNACK MIX

Steps:

• Turn your slow cooker on and add the cereals, pretzels, crackers, and nuts.
• In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, garlic, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, seasoning salt, and Sriracha. One small dash of Sriracha will not make the snack mix spicy, it simply adds flavour.
• Pour the butter mixture over the ingredients in the slow cooker and toss gently but thoroughly with a rubber spatula (this prevents the ingredients from breaking) until everything is well coated.
• Cook on high in your slow cooker for about 2 hours, stirring every half hour or so. I recommend taking the lid off the slow cooker for the last 15 minutes of cooking to let any moisture evaporate.
• Be sure to let the snack mix cool completely before packing it up for storage in an airtight container. This will prevent the snack mix from becoming soggy and keep it nice and crispy. The best way to do this is on some parchment paper on a large tray or baking sheet.
• Once the snack mix is cooled completely, store it in airtight containers or serve immediately.
