Dairy Free Pineapple Lime Trail Mix
Tropical, tangy, and just a little addictive, this trail mix hits every note you want from a snack — sweet dried pineapple, toasty nuts, bright lime, and a whisper of heat from cayenne. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of dairy, so there's no swapping or substituting needed; it just works as written. Coconut oil and maple syrup do the heavy lifting as a sticky, flavor-packed coating that crisps beautifully in the oven, giving the almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds a satisfying crunch without a drop of butter or ghee. The lime zest and fresh juice are what really set this apart from a standard trail mix — that citrus brightness cuts through the richness of the nuts and makes the whole thing feel refreshing rather than heavy. A quick 7–9 minutes in the oven is all it takes, and the mixture firms up even more as it cools on the pan. Toss in the pineapple chunks once everything has cooled and you've got a snack that's equally at home in a hiking pack, a desk drawer, or a party bowl.
