Method

Preparation

Prep the Ingredients

Begin by gathering all the nuts, seeds, and dried fruits. Ensure that the nuts are raw and unsalted for a healthier mix.

Chop Dried Fruits

Chop the dried apricots into smaller pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the trail mix.

Mixing

Combine Nuts and Seeds

In a large mixing bowl, add the almonds, walnuts, Brazil nuts, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

Add Superfruits

Next, add the chopped dried apricots, dried goji berries, and dried cranberries to the nut and seed mixture. Stir again until evenly distributed.

Flavoring

Incorporate Sweetener

Drizzle the honey or maple syrup over the mixture and toss well to ensure that the sweetener coats the nuts, seeds, and fruits.

Add Flavorings

If using, sprinkle cinnamon and vanilla extract over the mixture and stir until all ingredients are well combined.

Storage

Store the Trail Mix

Transfer the trail mix to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place for up to two weeks or in the fridge for longer freshness.
