Start by preparing the dried fruits. Dice the dried apricots into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, dried cranberries, diced dried apricots, raisins, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and unsweetened shredded coconut.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon and salt over the dry ingredients and mix well to evenly distribute the spices.
In a separate small bowl, combine the vanilla extract and maple syrup.
Pour the vanilla and maple syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and toss until everything is well coated and evenly combined.
Serve the muesli immediately as a breakfast cereal with your choice of milk, yogurt, or enjoy it dry as a snack.
For storage, transfer the muesli to an airtight container. It can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
