Seed Oil Free Cranberry Walnut Trail Mix
Most store-bought trail mixes are loaded with canola or sunflower oil coatings that sneak in during roasting — this version skips all of that entirely. Walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds get tossed in pure maple syrup with cinnamon and salt, so the flavor comes from real ingredients rather than industrial shortcuts. The dried cranberries are specifically chosen without apple juice or high-fructose corn syrup, and the dark chocolate chips bring a rich, slightly bitter depth that balances the tart fruit beautifully. Everything comes together in a single bowl with no baking required, making it one of the easiest snacks you can prep for the week. It stores at room temperature for up to two weeks, so you can make a full batch and grab a portion whenever hunger hits. This is the kind of snack that genuinely satisfies — crunchy, chewy, sweet, and salty all at once.
