Trail Mix Brownies!
I felt a small wave of inspiration yesterday and created a new recipe for my forthcoming vegan brownie cookbook. It’s frustrating how easily motivation can plummet and then disappear. If Tim hadn’t been demanding treats these brownies may not have happened. I can’t recall ever taking brownies on a hike, but hey, why not? These have homemade trail mix in the batter and on top of the finished brownies - twice the trail mix! I may experiment further with different nuts and dried fruits in future batches.
Brownies while hiking seems perfectly acceptable to me!


This sounds crazy…but I can deal with that.
A close friend of mine hikes with homemade fudge on winter trips and doesn’t feel the least bit guilty about the indulgence! It also makes her VERY popular with other trekkers. :P
Well now I want some fudge! And some of your donuts!!
Wow! Ill take those on my next hike for sure! :) They looks awesome and my brownies never come out.
I’ll definitely try these brownies from your cookbook, and enjoy them on the trail :)
I can’t wait for your book to come out! Trail Mix Brownies = brilliant!
Great idea! I think I’ll have to try to work trail mix into my regular brownie recipe – while waiting for your book!
yum! nothing is better than a chocolatey snack when you’ve reached the top of a mountain.
Those brownies look and sound delicious!
