Nuts and Bolts Recipe
Report
The more-ish and budget-friendly snack that's salty-sweet and always a favourite.
Share:
Ingredients
- 3 cups Nutri-Grain (120 grams)
- 2 cups pretzels (80 grams)
- 1 ½ cups roasted and salted peanuts/mixed nuts (220 grams)
- 40 gram packet French Onion Soup mix
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon curry powder
- 3 tablespoons light olive oil
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to moderate (180 degrees celsius/355 degrees fahrenheit).
- Grease a large baking tray.
- Place Nutri-Grain, Pretzels and nuts into the greased tray. Sprinkle the soup mix and spices over the top of these ingredients and then drizzle with the olive oil.
- Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon (while in the tray) and then shake tray gently to ensure the mixture is distributed evenly.
- Bake for 12 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely and then store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container for six weeks or more.
- Nuts and Bolts is a great gifting idea. Add to a jar and use some Christmas ribbon for a festive and affordable gift.
- Variation ideas
- This recipe can easily be varied by:
- subbing Nutri-Grain with another breakfast cereal
- subbing pretzels with rice crisps or another salty treat
- using cashews, macadamias or pistachios instead of roasted and salted peanuts/mixed nuts
- using Chicken Soup mix instead of French Onion Soup mix
- using garlic powder instead of paprika
- adding cumin instead of curry powder (though I’ve got to say I love my nuts and bolts recipe with curry powder)
- subbing light olive oil for peanut, vegetable, coconut or macadmia oil.
