Barley Free Cranberry Walnut Trail Mix
Crunchy, chewy, sweet, and just a little salty — this trail mix hits every snack craving in a single handful. Walnuts bring rich, buttery depth while pumpkin and sunflower seeds add serious crunch, and the dried cranberries give little bursts of tart sweetness throughout. A drizzle of maple syrup and a pinch of cinnamon tie everything together with a warm, cozy note that makes this feel more intentional than your average grab-and-go mix. The dark chocolate chips — at least 70% cacao — add a slightly bitter edge that balances the sweetness beautifully. For anyone navigating grain sensitivities, packaged snack mixes can be a minefield of hidden ingredients and shared-facility warnings. This one is made entirely from nuts, seeds, fruit, and chocolate, with no grains or grain derivatives anywhere in the ingredient list. The cranberries are specifically chosen without apple juice or high-fructose corn syrup, so you're in full control of what goes in. Mix it up, store it in an airtight container, and you've got a reliable, satisfying snack ready to go for up to two weeks.
