Seed Oil Free Pineapple Lime Trail Mix
Most packaged trail mixes rely on canola, sunflower, or other refined seed oils to coat and roast the nuts — which makes finding a clean option at the store genuinely frustrating. This version uses melted coconut oil instead, keeping every ingredient exactly where you want it. Raw almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds get tossed in a bright, zippy mixture of maple syrup, fresh lime juice, and lime zest before a short trip into the oven, where they turn fragrant and lightly golden. The dried pineapple goes in after baking, so it stays chewy and sweet against the crispy, toasted nuts. A pinch of cayenne adds just enough heat to make the tropical flavors pop without overwhelming the whole batch. It crisps up beautifully as it cools, and once it does, you've got a snack that's genuinely hard to stop eating.
