Ultimate Trail Mix Recipe
I’ve been thinking about mixing up a trail mix recipe for weeks. I finally had time this past weekend to get it done and let me tell you, this trail mix recipe is SO yummy! It is ultimate!
You can modify this recipe to your heart’s content. It is completely customizable to your taste. 🙂
The Ultimate Trail Mix Recipe
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 cup pecans
- 1 cup almonds
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup pepitas {shelled pumpkin seeds}
- 1/2 cup flaxseed
- 1/4 cup flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/2 stick butter, melted
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 1 cup canned pumpkin or 1 cup applesauce
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup chopped dates
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup shredded coconut
In a large bowl, combine oats, nuts, seeds, flour, salt and cinnamon. In a smaller bowl, mix honey, butter, vanilla and pumpkin. Pour honey mixture over the nut and seed mixture. Toss until well coated. Spread mixture on baking sheets and bake in batches at 300 degrees for 20 minutes. Turn trail mix, stir and bake another 15 minutes…or until dry, but not burned.
Cool completely. Add chocolate chips, dried fruit and coconut, stir. Store in an airtight container for a week or longer-term in the freezer.
This recipe makes approximately 3 quarts of trail mix which will last us for several weeks.
*Note: I love dividing up the trail mix in snack-size bags. It’s perfect for sending with my hubby to work or taking a snack on-the-go in the car.
Have you ever made homemade trail mix?

Never made homemade trail mix but have always wanted to. It’s expensive to buy premade! Great recipe 🙂
My hubby would LOVE this!
