Ingredients

• 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 1 cup Raw pecans
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted)
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Dried cranberries (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to distribute the ingredients evenly.

Step 3

In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, combine the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Heat gently until mixed well and slightly warm.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly coated with the wet mixture.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet and stir the granola gently to ensure even toasting. Spread it back into an even layer and return to the oven.

Step 7

Continue baking for an additional 12–15 minutes, or until the granola turns golden brown and fragrant. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Once cooled, if desired, mix in the dried cranberries or other dried fruits of your choice.

Step 10

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Serve with yogurt, milk, or enjoy as a snack.
