The funny thing is that I don’t actually love pumpkin pie! It is a texture thing for me. So having a Fall treat that has the sweet pumpkin flavor, without the mushy texture is a major win in my book.

Make sure you do all of your prep work before jumping right into the recipe. The last thing you want to be worrying about is lining your baking sheet when you have a bowl full of coated cereal that needs to have sugar sprinkled on it.

This sounds so yummy and easy! Quick question. Have you tried cooking this in the microwave instead of the oven like regular chex mix?

I'm here to report back. First of all this stuff is so yummy!!! I went ahead and tried the microwave method. Here's what I did: I melted the butter in a large microwave safe bowl. Then I mixed in the sugars and microwaved 30 seconds, stirred and then cooked another 20 seconds. Stirred in pumpkin pie spice and then mixed in the cereal to coat. Microwaved for 6 mins stirring every 2 mins. Let cool in the bowl and then dug in!
