3 cups of Chex cereal (use a mix of your favorite types)
1 cup of pretzels
1 cup of Halloween-themed candy (such as candy corn, M&M’s, or gummy worms)
1/4 cup of unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1/2 teaspoon of paprika
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
Cooking spray (for the air fryer basket)
Instructions:
Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (150°C).
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzels, and Halloween-themed candy.
Prepare the Seasoning: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Coat the Mix: Pour the seasoning mixture over the dry ingredients and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Prep the Air Fryer Basket: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Air Fry the Mix: Place the seasoned Chex Mix into the air fryer basket, spreading it out into an even layer.
Cook in Batches: Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook the mix in batches. Avoid overcrowding the basket to ensure even cooking.
Air Fry: Set the air fryer to 300°F (150°C) and air fry for 5-7 minutes, shaking the basket every 2-3 minutes to ensure even cooking. Keep a close eye on it, as the mix can burn quickly. The goal is to make the mix crispy, not toasting it too much.
Cool and Serve: Once the Chex Mix is crispy and lightly browned, remove it from the air fryer and let it cool in the basket for a few minutes. Then, transfer it to a serving bowl or container.
Add More Halloween Decorations: If you want to make it extra Halloween-themed, you can mix in more candy, gummy worms, or any other spooky treats.
Enjoy: Your Air Fryer Halloween Chex Mix is ready to enjoy! Serve it at your Halloween party or enjoy it as a tasty snack…
