Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Raw almonds (chopped)
- 1 cup Raw pecans (chopped)
- 1 cup Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.5 cup Honey or 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
- 0.75 cup Raisins or dried cherries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, chopped pecans, pumpkin seeds, and shredded coconut.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well blended.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly with the back of a spatula to create an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting. Watch closely during the last 5 minutes to avoid burning.
Once the granola is golden brown and fragrant, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet; it will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, add the dried cranberries and raisins (or dried cherries) to the granola. Mix gently to combine.
Transfer the granola muesli to an airtight container or jar for storage. It will keep fresh for up to 2 weeks at room temperature.
