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 the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, add the maple syrup and vanilla extract, stirring to combine.

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir well until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.
