Ingredients
1/4cupmaple syrup
1/8tspsalt
1/2tsppumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
2/3cupwalnuts
1/3almonds
1/3cuppumpkin seeds
1/3cuproasted sunflower seeds
1/2cupdried cranberries
1/4cupwhite chocolate chips
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Add the maple syrup to a small pot over medium heat. When it starts to bubble, stir in the salt and pumpkin pie spice. Reduce heat to medium low, and add the walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.
Continue to cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring often. Be sure to watch this closely as it’s a fine line between a nice maple coating and burning the mix. When there appears to be no more “extra” syrup in the pot and everything is sticking to the nuts/seeds, remove from heat and pour the mixture onto the parchment paper. Let cool.
When the nuts/seeds have cooled completely, break any clusters as needed and mix with the cranberries and white chocolate chips. Enjoy!
