Winter Trail Mix
A sweet and crunchy trail mix with big chunks of granola, toasted almonds, coconut, and my favorite BROOKSIDE Dark Chocolates.
Ingredients
For the trail mix:
- 1 cup whole raw almonds (140 grams)
- 1 cup sweetened wide-cut shredded coconut flakes (85 grams)
- 1 cup BROOKSIDE Dark Chocolates, any variety (175 grams)
- Granola clusters , see below
For the granola clusters:
- 1 ¾ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (175 grams)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
Instructions
To make the granola clusters:
- Preheat oven to 325° F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a medium bowl, combine the oats, cinnamon and salt. Combine the coconut oil, maple syrup, and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until smooth, and bring just to a boil. Immediately pour over the oat mixture and stir until all of the oat mixture is moistened.
- Spread onto the prepared sheet pan and bake until golden, about 20-25 minutes. Let cool completely, then break into chunks.
To prepare the trail mix:
- Spread the almonds evenly on a sheet pan. Toast in the 325° F oven for about 10 minutes until fragrant. Let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the toasted almonds, coconut, chocolates, and granola clusters. Store in a large airtight container or ziplock bags at room temperature for several weeks or longer.
