Note

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week for best crispiness.

For a gluten-free version, substitute the crackers and pretzels with gluten-free alternatives.

Ensure the butter mixture is fully dissolved and smooth before pouring to avoid clumps of seasoning mix.

Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; use two sheets if necessary to ensure even toasting.
