Preheat the oven to 250ºF. Lightly coat a baking sheet or roasting pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine cereal and pecans.
8 cups Crispix cereal, 2 cup pecan halves
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla and baking soda. Pour over cereal mixture, tossing gently to coat evenly.
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/2 cup salted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pour cereal mixture in the pan and spread out evenly. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Pour onto wax or parchment paper to cool. Break into pieces.

You can substitute Chex cereal (rice or corn) or Quaker Oatmeal Squares cereal for the Crispix.

If using unsalted butter add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the butter and sugar mixture.

Use a large roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet.

Storing - Pecan praline crunch mix is best stored in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature for up to 1 week.
