Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, chopped almonds, pumpkin seeds, and chia seeds. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate microwavable bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Microwave for 15-30 seconds to ensure it is fully melted and combined.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients. Add the cinnamon and salt. Stir everything together until well coated and evenly mixed.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down lightly with a spatula to compact the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will become crispier as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried blueberries.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
