Notes
- Before mixing the ingredients, taste each one to make sure they aren’t stale.
- If storing for a long time, you want to make sure whatever you’re using is completely dried and has very little moisture as it can make some of the trail mix moldy.
- You can use salted nuts and seeds for this recipe, you’ll just have to omit the added salt.
- Avoid using big chunks of fruit or chocolate to keep the trail mix bite-sized and even.
- More Trail Mix Add-Ins
- White chocolate, peanut butter, or butterscotch chips
- Dried berries such as blueberries or raspberries
- Dried apricots, mangoes, or peaches
- Sprinkle in some brazil nuts, black walnuts, or macadamia nuts
- Make it sweeter by toasting your nuts with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup
- Add some popcorn, pretzels, or your favorite cereal
