Homemade Trail Mix Recipe

This Homemade Trail Mix is to die for! Extra peanut buttery for the peanut butter lover in your life.

Summer time requires quick and easy snacks that you can throw in a beach bag or a diaper bag on the way to the park/beach/zoo/splash pad. This peanut butter trail mix completely fits the bill. It takes minutes (not even!) to make, and is perfect for travel or fun on-the-go. 

All you need is a huge bowl, a big spoon and a few seconds to stir it up. Oh and did I mention it tastes amazing? All the peanut butter goodness you could ever want. I PACKED IT IN. Peanuts (duh), peanut butter M&M’s, Reese’s Pieces, peanut butter chips, peanut butter filled pretzels, and some raisins to even it all out. What’s a good trail mix without raisins, anyways?

I’d recommend throwing this peanut butter trail mix in snack-sized zip-top bags so it is easy to grab on the go. Not only that, but it is good portion-control. Trust me, you’ll need it. Especially if you’re a peanut butter fan. This stuff is addicting in a huge way.

If you aren’t a peanut butter fan or are allergic, you could adjust this recipe (but it would be a lot of adjusting!) or you could try these smoky roasted almonds, southwestern wheat thins or vanilla bean candied walnuts. All great snacking material!
