1 Video | Photo: Pumpkin Seed Dried Cherry Trail Mix Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups baby pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 3/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 6 tablespoons pure Grade B maple syrup
- Coarse salt
- 1 cup dried cherries or cranberries
Directions
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large bowl, toss the pumpkin seeds, almonds, and sunflower seeds and the syrup until evenly coated. Spread the nuts and seeds out, in an even single layer, on the lined baking sheets and season with salt to taste. Bake the nuts, stirring several times with spatula or wooden spoon, until just golden, about 20 minutes.
Cool the nuts completely on the pan, then add the cherries and toss to combine. Store cooled trail mix in an airtight container at room temperature.

I made this trail mix a few weeks ago when I saw it on TV. I put it in snack bags and took it with us on a trip. Also, gave some to a friend who was recovering from surgery. We love this trail mix so much I am making some more today. My friend sent a thank you and said she loved everything in her goodie bag, especially the seed/nut packets. I always add a few dried cranberries and more almonds. Dried cherries are so expensive and hard to find. We love it and its good for us. It's a snack we can feel good about. Thanks!

I have tried several trail mix recipes, and this is the favorite, by far. Even family members who turn up their noses to "healthy" food, love it! It has the perfect balance of flavors, I highly recommend it!
