Ingredients

• 4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup raw almonds
• 1 cup raw pecans
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 cup coconut oil
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup dried cranberries
• 1 cup golden raisins

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, and shredded coconut.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Remove from heat and whisk in the maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly to create clusters if desired.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking. Keep an eye on it, as granola can burn quickly in the last few minutes.

Step 7

Once the granola is golden brown and fragrant, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet. This will help it crisp up as it cools.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries and golden raisins, breaking apart any large clusters if necessary.

Step 9

Transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage. It can be kept at room temperature for up to two weeks.

Step 10

Serve with milk, yogurt, or fresh fruit for a nutritious breakfast.
