Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cinnamon, and salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt together the honey and coconut oil, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the wet mixture over the oats and stir until well combined. Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring the granola halfway through to ensure even toasting. Watch closely in the last few minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will harden as it cools.
Once the granola has cooled, transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Add the almonds, pecans, raisins, dried cranberries, mini chocolate chips, and sunflower seeds. Mix until evenly distributed.
Store the Granola Gorp in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Portion it into individual bags for an easy, portable snack.
