Pumpkin-Seed Dried Cherry Trail Mix - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups pepitas (baby pumpkin seeds)
1 cup almonds or 1 cup cashews
3/4 cup sunflower seeds
6 tablespoons maple syrup
1 1 cup cranberries or 1 cup raisins
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic salt

Preparation

Toss the pepitas, almonds/cashews, sunflower seeds, and maple syrup.
Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
Sprinkle cayenne pepper and garlic salt on top, evenly.
Bake at 300 degrees for 30-40 minutes, stirring twice. Mixture should be golden.
Remove from oven and let rest 3 minutes, then stir, breaking up the large clumps (otherwise it gets gooey and stuck to the parchment).
After the mixture has cooled, stir in the dried fruit.
