Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 1 cup Raw walnuts
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup Raw sunflower seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine honey, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until well blended, then remove from heat.
Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture, stirring to coat everything evenly.
Spread the mixture in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking, until the granola is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet; it will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
