This is a wonderful, healthier snack mix that has all the smells and tastes of Christmas!
4 cups freshly popped popcorn
4 cups cheerios
1 cup nuts, toasted at 350 for 5 minutes
1/3 cup maple syrup
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
Pinch of baking soda
1 cup dried cranberries
Heat oven to 300. Grease a large, rimmed baking sheet. Mix the popcorn, cheerios and nuts in a large bowl. Bring syrup, cinnamon and salt to a boil in a small pot over medium heat. Let the mixture boil for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off heat and add baking soda, stirring until mixture is creamy. Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well. Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet and bake until it is dry to the touch, about 15 minutes. Let the popcorn cool for 20 minutes, then mix in the cranberries.
