Instructions


0 Heat the oven to 250 degrees F. Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
1 In a large mixing bowl, combine the cereal, pretzels and pecans.
2 In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup and butter. Microwave until butter melts, about 1 minute. Continue microwaving in 30 second increments, stirring each time, until mixture is smooth and begins to boil. Stir in the vanilla, baking soda, and salt.
3 Pour the syrup over the cereal. Stir until even.
4 Spread the cereal out over the prepared baking sheet and bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
5 Cool completely. Once cooled, gently break cereal apart. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
