Key Lime Crunch Snack Mix

Ingredients

  • 3 c. Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds
  • 3 c. Crispix cereal or Rice Chex
  • 3 c. Golden Graham cereal
  • 1 c. shaved unsweetened coconut toasted
  • 6.5 oz. jar macadamia nuts cut in half
  • 1 c. banana chips
  • 1 1/2 c. salted pretzel squares broken
  • 2 tsp. key lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp. key lime zest
  • zest from 1 lemon
  • 2 c. white chocolate chips melted
  • 1 Tbsp. flaked sea salt could use sea salt
  • 3/4 c. graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tsp. coconut oil optional (I used)

Instructions

  1. Mix together all the cereals in a very large bowl. Add in the banana chips, nuts, toasted coconut, and the zest of the lemon and lime.

  2. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler (or bowl set over pan of simmering water). If you are using the coconut oil add it with the chocolate. When melted, take about 1/2 cup out and stir in the key lime juice in a small bowl. This will definitely seize up but will mix in when you add everything together and give the lime flavor to all the mix.

  3. Pour this onto the cereal and then add the melted chocolate and stir gently got coat. Pour the crunch mixture onto a baking sheet or wax paper you have put on the counter top. Sprinkle with salt and graham cracker crumbs. Using your hands toss the mix to lightly coat in the crumbs.

Recipe Notes

I added one square of the almond bark that I had in my pantry because I wasn't sure if the chocolate alone was going to be enough; it probably would have but I had extra so thought I might as well use it. Also the original recipe I started with from Ritzymom.com added one cup of salted roasted cashews; I may add those the next time.
