Ingredients

• 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup raw almonds (chopped)
• 1 cup raw pecans (chopped)
• 0.5 cup pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
• 0.75 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 0.5 cup maple syrup
• 0.25 cup melted coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup dried cranberries
• 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, almonds, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir well.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and press it down slightly with the back of a spoon for clumpier textures.

Step 6

Bake for 20–25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and fragrant. Watch closely to avoid burning.

Step 7

Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet. It will become crisp as it cools.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries and optional mini chocolate chips.

Step 9

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for longer freshness.
