EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Freeze-drying apples is another method of dehydrating apples. Freeze-dried apples will be crispier and lighter because they contain less moisture than regular dried apples.

For easy drizzling, spoon the melted white vanilla baking chips into a small food-storage bag. Snip off one tiny bottom corner and squeeze the melted chips over the cereal mixture.

This is a wonderful mix!! I made this for family Christmas gifts and everyone loved it. I used the Apple Chex and it was really yummy. Made the whole house smell like Apple Pie! I have already purchased fancy glass jars to put this in for next year's Christmas gifts. My husband could not stop eating it. Will definitely make this again and again.
