I just made this for company and I have to keep reminding myself not to munch on it! I used dried apples instead of dried bananas- you could play with the fruit/nut combination. Thanks to the other reviewers who warned that 55-60 minutes is too long to cook. I checked mine at 40 minutes and it was a touch too brown. I'd start watching it closely after 30 minutes or so.
Addictive!

This trail mix is very addictive! It makes a large portion and will keep for several days. I liked all of the different ingrediants. I left out a couple of things (wheat germ, 2 of the dried fruits) and you are still left with a tasty mix. Tasty by itself or mixed with yogurt. A Keeper!
Simply the best!

Being rated 5 stars, i decided to try this recipe. I used parchment paper instead of foil and i had absolutely no problem of the mix sticking. i used the top rack of my oven and stirred every 10 minutes just to make sure it wouldn't burn. I also used only 3/4 can of the condensed milk because i didn't want it too sweet. It came out perfect. I couldn't stop eating it and my daughter's got tired of hearing me rave about how good my trail mix came out. Using this trail mix over plain yogurt or as a breakfast cereal would be great. Just to have in a ziploc bag when you're on the run is a good thing too.
GREAT !

I made this for my husband and daughter but I ended up eating much of it. Even uncooked, it's delicious - ranks up there with cookie dough. I used Bear Naked granola and thought it was excellent!

This is the best trail mix recipe! It is so easy and it stores really well. We even put it in a bowl and poured milk over it and ate it as cereal. Yummy!

Really good trail mix. Be sure to use non-stick foil and even spray that with Pam as its really sticky. Bake only 40 to 45 minutes even tho it seems soft. It will crisp as it cools. I added m&ms for a special treat. Yum!

This is a very good recipe that you should try. It's a bit on the sweet side because of the condensed milk. I, too, used non-fat condensed milk and canola oil and the recipe came out fine. The non-stick tin foil is a must! Also, cook for 45 min. vs. the recommended 60 min.
Wonderfully easy and delicious!

So easy and delicious as trail mix, sundae topping or even breakfast cereal. Very flexible, add your favorite dried fruits and even chocolate chips. Keeps well (that is if it lasts the day.)

Okay, I am completely addicted to this trial mix. My co-worker and I have adapted our versions and we make it every week. In order to have a healthier version of the trail mix,I use the fat-free condensed milk vs. regular sweetened condensed milk and canola oil vs. vegetable oil.. Also, I like to add sesame sticks, dried pineapple, and dried mango as I add the fruit in at the end of the process(for extra flavor and texture). This recipe is so easy and it is a hit. If you are contemplating whether or not to try this recipe... do yourself a favor and try it! You will absolutely love it.
terrific snack

I was disappointed with this recipe. I followed the directions, but it came out tasting over cooked. I felt like my teeth were going to break when I tried to eat it. I usually like Paula's recipes, but I don't think I'll give this one another try.

I used the vanilla granola you can buy at Trader Joes, and substitute my family's favorite dried fruit for the dried fruit list on the recipe, just as Paula suggests. We took it camping in Independence, CA and it was a hit. Of course, most of Paula's recipes are a success with most everyone I know! She's the BEST!
very good

I baked it too long (55 min), it was TOO crunchy. Also, I love banana's, so thought banana chips would be perfect...but they didn't add anything, instead everyone just picked them out. So no banana chips next time, and less of a bake time to make bigger clusters. Great snack though!!

This is the perfect snack for a long trip or for just sitting around the fire it's also fine for breakfast as a cereal with milk or over yogurt. Lord knows you'll have enough to try it as many ways you can think of. The recipie make quite a bit, be sure to seal it in an airtight container. Definatley order from Hudson valley dessert company the product is fabulous and they have a lot to chhose from, they also have a very nice Biscotti.

My husband and I love this recipe. I did change a couple of things in order to make it a little healthier. I used low fat condensed milk, canola oil, and add a tbls milled flax seed. It was delicious. I have made it as recipe stated once and to be honest couldn't tell the dffference so now always make the lower fat version. I also add almonds. I usually make a big batch and put it in separate bowls so my husband and I can add whatever fruit, chocolate chips, etc the each of us wants. Should also not that I only cook for 45 minutes now. Thanks for another great recipe!
Fabulous!

We started hiking recently (for exercise) and love having trail mix for a snack. Made this one using Hadley's (from SO CA) granola and it is so great! Tastes soooo good! Only problem: we may have baked it too long, although we didn't exceed 55-60 min. Stored it in an air-tight canister and it's now kind of dry and crummy instead of moist and lumpy. Won't bake it quite so long or crumble it quite so small next time. Flavor hasn't been negatively affected, though. Delicious!
Mouth watering good...

This is a killer recipe. I bring it to all sorts of functions. The universal response is "You should sell this stuff!" Mix it up by varying the nuts (almonds are great) and the fruit (or omitting what you don't like). Make two batches. There won't be any left from your potluck.
Perfect for the game or movie watching

My kids' idea of a healthy snack is Cheez-It crackers. They love this recipe. I added an extra cup of Granola (I used Kellogg's)and substituted almonds for pecans. It has a wonderful crunch. We have added various ingredients from chocolate chips to dried pineapple. Very versatile recipe. The new stick free aluminum foil is must have for this recipe.

this is super. I had to substitute ingredients. Used flaxmeal instead of wheat germ and grapeseed oil instead of vegetable oil. Did not use coconut. Used a mixed variety of raisins and used dried cranberry, but did not use apricots, they are too overpowering unless real dry. Would use more nuts, walnuts and pecans were good. It sure is a keeper though.
