Ingredients

• 1 cup raw almonds
• 1 cup raw cashews
• 0.5 cup raw pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cup raw sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 0.25 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and flaxseeds.

Step 3

Add the cinnamon and salt to the dry ingredients and toss to combine.

Step 4

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Remove from heat and stir in the honey and vanilla extract until well mixed.

Step 5

Pour the melted coconut oil mixture over the dry ingredients in the bowl. Stir well until everything is evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly so it is packed in a single layer.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 8

Once golden brown and fragrant, remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.

Step 9

Once cool, break up the granola into clusters. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
