Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 0.5 cup raw pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 0.5 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and flaxseeds.
Add the cinnamon and salt to the dry ingredients and toss to combine.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Remove from heat and stir in the honey and vanilla extract until well mixed.
Pour the melted coconut oil mixture over the dry ingredients in the bowl. Stir well until everything is evenly coated.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly so it is packed in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Once golden brown and fragrant, remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
Once cool, break up the granola into clusters. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
