Ingredients

Instructions

  • Rinse the lentils well and soak them in water for one hour. Drain them once soaked.
  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine soaked lentils with almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds. Spread the mixture on the baking sheet. Sprinkle salt over the mixture.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the mixture is golden brown and crunchy. Let it cook down completely.
  • Once cooled, combine the chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and raisins. Mix well and store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • Let the roasted ingredients cool completely before mixing them with the chocolate chips and dried fruits. This prevents the chocolate from melting and clumping together.
  • Feel free to customize the mix based on your preferences. Add coconut flakes, chia seeds, or different types of dried fruits to make the trail mix uniquely yours.
  • Store your lentil trail mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. However, for the absolute best crunch, I recommend enjoying it within one week.
