A homemade dry fruit mix is one of the simplest ways to keep a wholesome, energising snack on hand. Instead of reaching for processed snacks, a small handful of this nut, seed and dried-fruit blend delivers protein, healthy fats, fibre and minerals — satisfying, convenient and naturally sweet. Here is an easy recipe, plus how to store it and the honest nutrition picture.
Ingredients
- 100g almonds
- 100g walnuts
- 100g pistachios (unsalted preferred)
- 100g cashews
- 100g pumpkin / melon seeds (char magaz)
- 100g raisins
- 100g figs (anjeer), chopped
- 100g dates, pitted and chopped
How to Prepare
- Lightly dry-roast the nuts and seeds (optional) for a deeper flavour; let them cool.
- Roughly chop the larger nuts, and cut the figs and dates into small pieces.
- Mix everything together evenly.
- Store in a clean, airtight jar.
How to Store
Keep the mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from heat and light. For longer freshness — especially because nuts and seeds are oil-rich — store it in the fridge. Use within a few weeks for the best taste and texture.
Suggested Daily Serving
A small handful, about 30g per day, is plenty. The mix is calorie-dense, so measure a portion rather than snacking straight from the jar.

How much of the dry fruit power mix should I eat daily?
A small handful, about 30g per day, is a sensible serving. The mix is calorie-dense, so measure a portion rather than eating straight from the jar.
How long does the mix stay fresh?
Stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, it stays fresh for a few weeks. Because nuts and seeds are oil-rich, keeping it in the fridge extends freshness.
Is this power mix good for energy?
Yes. It combines protein, healthy fats and the natural sugars of dried fruit, making it a satisfying, energising snack that fits well into an active, balanced diet.
Can people with diabetes eat it?
The dates, raisins and figs are sugar-dense, so people with diabetes should keep portions small, perhaps reduce the dried fruit, and follow their doctor's or dietitian's advice.
Can I customise the mix?
Absolutely. Adjust the ingredients to taste — add chilgoza or sunflower seeds, or reduce the dried fruit for less sweetness. Keep a balance of nuts, seeds and a little dried fruit.
