Preheat your oven to 300Β°F (150Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, matcha powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring well to ensure all the oat mixture is coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly across the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting, until the granola is golden and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet, during which the granola will crisp up.
Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.
Store your nut-free matcha granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
