I have no idea what Trail Mix is, but I'm guessing you want small snacks to pack for your trip.

Here's a health bar recipe that's easy to make and should travel well.



INGREDIENTS

6oz (125g olive oil margarine
1/3 cup (75g) firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey (or golden syrup if you'd like it less sweet)
1½ cups (135g) rolled oats
½ cup (75g) self-raising flour (cake flour)
½ cup (65g) dried cranberries, apricots, apples or other dried fruit
½ cup (70g) coarsely chopped, pitted dried dates
½ cup (80g) sultanas
¼ cup (50g) pumpkin seed kernels (pepitas)
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

METHOD

Preheat oven to 350F (180°C). Grease an 11 x 7inch (28cm x 18cm) (base measurement) slice pan and line the base and two long sides with one piece of baking paper.

Stir margarine, sugar and honey (or syrup) in a medium saucepan, over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Press the mixture into the pan and smooth the surface. Bake for about 35 minutes or until golden.

When cooked, leave in the pan to cool.
Cut into bars.





BTW...... did you say you were heading to Disney World?
