Corn puff snack mix with nuts and dried fruit Recipe

American · Snack · 20 min total

A crunchy, sweet, and savory snack mix combining corn puffs with toasted nuts and chewy dried fruit, perfect for parties or snacking.

Ingredients

• 4 cups corn puffs (e.g., Corn Pops or plain corn puffs)
• 1 cup mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, cashews, peanuts)
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine corn puffs, mixed nuts, dried cranberries, and dried apricots.
3. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter with honey, salt, and smoked paprika (if using). Stir until smooth and bubbly, about 2 minutes.
4. Pour the butter mixture over the corn puff mixture and toss gently until evenly coated.
5. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until lightly toasted and fragrant.
7. Let cool completely on the baking sheet (it will crisp up as it cools). Break into clusters if desired.

Tips

• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
• For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the butter mixture.
• Swap dried fruit: use raisins, chopped dates, or dried cherries.
• Make it vegan: use coconut oil instead of butter and maple syrup instead of honey.
