Cashew Free Maple Oat Trail Mix

Trail mix sounds simple until you start reading ingredient labels and realize how many store-bought blends sneak in cashews or are processed on shared equipment with them. This homemade version keeps things clean and delicious, built around hearty gluten-free oats, walnut halves, and raw pumpkin seeds for a satisfying mix of crunch and chew. Pure maple syrup and melted coconut oil bring everything together with a naturally sweet, lightly caramelized coating that makes the whole kitchen smell incredible while it bakes. A touch of cinnamon and salt round out the flavor so it tastes anything but plain. The trick to getting that perfect crisp cluster texture is letting the mix cool completely on the pan without stirring — patience pays off here. Dried cranberries and optional dairy-free chocolate chips get folded in after baking so they stay plump and don't scorch. It's the kind of snack you'll want to keep in a jar on the counter and grab by the handful all week long.
