What do I need to make Healthy Pumpkin Spice Snack Mix?

  • Pecans: I love protein-packed pecans and their buttery texture in this recipe, but you can substitute the pecans with your favorite nuts or seeds if you prefer.
  • Pretzels: gluten-free vegan pretzels over here, of course! These are so crunchy and wonderful in this recipe.
  • Corn Flakes: these are the best crunchy little bits in the mix and I recommend including them if you have them around. You could substitute with a different cereal if preferred. 
  • Maple Syrup: I love the maple syrup flavor here, but you can also use honey, or a combination of the two if you prefer.
  • Coconut Oil: this helps us get a super crispy snack mix. I recommend using refined coconut oil here to get rid of the coconut flavor.
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice: a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, this makes this taste SO warm and delicious. 
  • Dried Cranberries: I make sure to always use apple juice-sweetened dried cranberries to get rid of any refined sugars. You can leave these out if preferred, or replace them with chocolate chips for a more decadent snack mix!
