Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (100 g / 3.5 oz) granola
  • 1⁄4 cup / 36g (1.27 oz) salted peanuts
  • 1⁄4 cup / 45g (1.59 oz) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1⁄4 cup / 20g (0.71 oz) dehydrated banana chips
  • 2 tablespoons (15 g / 0.53 oz) hazelnuts
  • To prevent chocolate chips from melting in warm weather, chill the trail mix before packing or use candy-coated chocolates instead.
  • For extra flavor and crunch, lightly toast the peanuts and hazelnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes before adding them to the mix.
  • Feel free to customize! Swap in other nuts like almonds or pecans, or add dried fruits like raisins, cranberries, or chopped apricots for a different flavor profile.
  • Make a large batch and store it in a large airtight glass jar on your counter for easy, healthy snacking throughout the week.

Method

  2. Stir everything together until well combined and the are evenly distributed.
  3. Pack in a resealable bag or container for an easy on-the-go snack. If not using immediately, store in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain freshness.
