Lactose Free Cranberry Walnut Trail Mix
Crunchy, chewy, sweet, and just a little salty — this trail mix hits every snack craving at once without a drop of dairy in sight. Walnuts and pumpkin seeds bring satisfying richness and a serious crunch, while sunflower seeds round out the texture and add a subtle nuttiness. A drizzle of maple syrup and a dusting of cinnamon tie everything together with warm, cozy flavor that makes this feel more intentional than your average handful of nuts. The dried cranberries add a bright, tart chew, and the dark chocolate chips — 70% cacao or higher — deliver that bittersweet hit that keeps you coming back for more. Many store-bought trail mixes sneak in milk-based chocolate or honey-coated coatings that can be a problem, but every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify. It comes together in one bowl with zero cooking required, and it keeps at room temperature for up to two weeks, making it a brilliant make-ahead snack for busy weeks, road trips, or lunchboxes.
