- raisins 1/4 cup cup
- pumpkin seeds 1 tbsp tbsp
Method
-
Measure the almonds.
Use a kitchen scale or measuring cup to measure exactly 1 ounce (28.4 grams) of almonds. If you don’t have a scale, this is roughly 23 whole almonds.
Tip: Whole almonds provide a satisfying crunch and are easier to portion than sliced or chopped almonds. -
Measure the raisins.
Measure 1/4 cup of raisins. This is about 40 grams. Pour the raisins into a small mixing bowl.
Tip: If the raisins are clumped together, gently separate them with your fingers for even distribution. -
Measure the pumpkin seeds.
Measure 1 tablespoon (14 grams) of pumpkin seeds. Add them to the bowl with the raisins.
Tip: You can use raw or roasted pumpkin seeds depending on your flavor preference. -
Combine all ingredients.
Add the almonds to the bowl with the raisins and pumpkin seeds. Stir gently to mix all ingredients evenly.
Tip: Mixing by hand ensures the nuts and seeds don’t get crushed. -
Serve or store.
Enjoy your trail mix immediately or store it in an airtight container for later snacking.
Tip: Keep the mix in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
