Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F, then toast sunflower seeds, rolled oats, and chopped nuts on a rimmed baking sheet for 8–10 minutes, stirring halfway until lightly golden and fragrant.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, sea salt, and chili powder until smooth, creamy, and slightly bubbly.
- Pour the sweet-spice coating over the roasted seeds and oats, stirring gently with a spatula until every piece is evenly coated and glossy.
- Spread the mixture in an even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 325°F for 10–12 minutes, stirring once halfway for extra crunch.
- Allow the trail snack to cool completely, about 20 minutes, then toss in dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds for bursts of chewy color and texture.
