Ingredients

• 3 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Pumpkin seeds
• 1 cup Sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup Shredded coconut
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Matcha powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, matcha powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring well to ensure all the oat mixture is coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly across the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting, until the granola is golden and fragrant.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet, during which the granola will crisp up.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.

Step 9

Store your nut-free matcha granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
