Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 cup raw walnuts
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.25 cup chia seeds
- 0.25 cup flaxseeds
- 0.5 cup unflavored protein powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup honey
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, protein powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to mix evenly.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey and coconut oil. Stir occasionally until the coconut oil is melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the honey mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl, stirring thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are well-coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing down slightly to compact the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir the granola to ensure even cooking.
Return the granola to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until it turns golden brown and fragrant.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the sheet to become crisp.
Once cool, stir in the dried cranberries and transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage.
Enjoy your High Protein Homemade Honey Granola as a snack, in a breakfast bowl, or as a nutritious topping!
