Bright, tangy, and just a little indulgent, these trail mix cups are the kind of snack that feels like a treat while still being genuinely nourishing. Toasted pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds bring a satisfying crunch, walnuts add richness, and dark chocolate chips sneak in that hit of bittersweet depth — all pulled together with a drizzle of maple syrup and a pinch of salt. The real star is the kiwi topping, dressed in fresh lime zest, lime juice, and a touch more maple syrup for a citrusy glaze that makes the whole thing pop. Carrageenan is a common additive lurking in packaged snack mixes, flavored chocolates, and even some coconut products, so building this from whole, unprocessed ingredients means you stay completely clear of it without any label-reading stress. Every component here is straightforward and clean — nothing processed or suspicious in the mix. A scatter of fresh mint at the end is optional, but it adds an herby brightness that ties the tropical flavors together beautifully. These cups come together fast and work equally well as an afternoon snack, a light dessert, or something to set out when friends come over.

Heat a small dry skillet over medium heat. Add the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds and toast, stirring frequently, until the pumpkin seeds are puffed and lightly golden, about 3–4 minutes. Watch closely, as the seeds can brown quickly.
Transfer the toasted seeds to a mixing bowl and let cool for 2 minutes. Add the walnut halves, dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut, maple syrup, and salt. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
