Did you just look at that title and think “surely she could have said something more descriptive than ‘other stuff'”? Because I did. If you have a single term that encompasses trail mix, roasted chickpeas, cookies, and blondies, please let me know. Anyway! If you missed part 1 of the hiking snacks roundup, the bar and ball recipes are there. The recipes for granola and all the other stuff I just listed are here.
Granola and trail mix are fairly obvious hiking snacks; granola is granola bars in a different shape and trail mix has the word “trail” right there. Both usually contain lots of nuts and dried fruits, thus providing the energy density I talked about in the first post. Cookies and blondies are less obvious hiking fuels; I could tell you these are “healthified” recipes – which is true – but honestly, sometimes things don’t go as planned and you just need a cookie. Bring emergency cookies.

All of these look incredible! When I go hiking, I like something portable and easy to eat while walking, so a protein bar is usually my go-to! Id like to have bananas, but I don’t want to carry around a peel. Great roundup!

Thanks! I don’t do bananas either, just too easy to bruise/squish fruit in a backpack.

All of the snacks look great! Granola bars or cookies are my favorite hiking snacks. The three-ingredient flourless pumpkin cookies are right up my ally!
Thanks Amy!
