Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cup slivered almonds
- 0.5 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
- 0.5 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 0.5 cup plant-based protein powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, unsweetened coconut flakes, and plant-based protein powder.
Add the ground cinnamon and salt to the dry ingredients and mix well.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring it's in a thin layer for even baking.
Bake the granola in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even toasting. Watch closely towards the end to prevent burning.
Once the granola is golden and fragrant, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet.
After the granola has cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
