Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out all the ingredients for accuracy. Having everything ready will make the process smoother.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pistachio nuts, walnuts, and almonds. Make sure to mix them thoroughly so that all kinds of nuts are evenly distributed.
- Pour the dried cranberries into the bowl containing the mixed nuts. Again, mix well with a spoon or spatula until the cranberries are evenly distributed throughout the nut mixture.
- If you prefer a toasted trail mix, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread the nut mixture (without cranberries) evenly on a baking sheet.
- Bake for about 10-15 minutes, stirring halfway through the toasting time to ensure even toasting.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Once cooled, mix in the dried cranberries.
- Transfer the trail mix to an airtight container or zip-lock bag to keep it fresh. It can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the refrigerator for even longer.
- Enjoy the crunchy nutty trail mix as a convenient snack on-the-go, as a topping for yogurt or oatmeal, or even added to salads for an extra crunch.
Tips:
- Make sure the nuts are fresh to maximize flavor and crunchiness.
- Lightly toast the nuts to bring out their natural oils and enhance their flavor.
- Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
- Store the trail mix in an airtight container to maintain its freshness and keep it crunchy.
- Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other dried fruits or seeds according to your preference.
