Ingredients

• 3 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 1 cup Pecans
• 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon 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 (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, and sunflower seeds.

Step 3

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil if it is solid. Then add the honey, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the honey mixture over the oat and nut mixture. Use a spatula to thoroughly mix, ensuring all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing lightly to create a compact layer.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even toasting. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning—the granola is done when it is golden and fragrant.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the sheet. As it cools, it will become crisp.

Step 8

If using dried cranberries, sprinkle them over the cooled granola and mix gently.

Step 9

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy it with milk, yogurt, or as a snack on its own!
