Mustard Free Maple Oat Trail Mix

Trail mix sounds simple until you start reading labels — spice blends, flavored nuts, and even some dried fruits can hide unexpected additives that make snacking stressful. This homemade version keeps everything clean and straightforward, built around gluten-free oats, walnut halves, and raw pumpkin seeds toasted together in a coating of pure maple syrup, melted coconut oil, cinnamon, and salt. The result is deeply golden, warmly spiced, and satisfyingly crunchy in a way that no store-bought bag ever quite manages. Baking it low and slow at 325°F lets the maple syrup caramelize without burning, and the trick of leaving it completely undisturbed while it cools is what gives you those satisfying clusters. Tossed with tart dried cranberries and optional dairy-free chocolate chips once it comes off the pan, every handful hits that perfect sweet-salty balance. It's the kind of snack you'll want to keep in a jar on the counter all week — and it disappears fast enough that you probably will.
