Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 10
Ingredients
- 2 cups granola cereal
- 3⁄4 cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 3⁄4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
- 1 (3 1/2ounce) can flaked coconut (1 1/2 cups)
- 1⁄2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1⁄2 cup wheat germ
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1⁄4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup banana chips
- 1⁄2 cup dark raisin
- 1⁄2 cup golden raisin
- 1⁄2 cup dried cherries
- 1⁄2 cup dried apricot, diced
- 1 cup M&M'
Directions
- In large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except dried fruit (banana chips and raisins, cherries and apricots) and m&m's.
- Mix well.
- Spread evenly in an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet-spray foil with Pam (makes for easy clean-up).
- Bake at 300 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes (I like to leave some large clumps and break apart when cool).
- Note: Check at 40 minutes. Sometimes it's done. It will harden when cooled.
- Remove from oven. I like to immediately remove trail mix onto another pan or cookie sheet to cool.
- When warm, stir in banana chips, raisins, cherries and apricots.
- Cool thoroughly and add chocolate candies.
- Store tightly covered at room temperature.
