Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Raw nuts (such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts)
- 0.5 cups Raw seeds (such as sunflower or pumpkin seeds)
- 0.5 cups Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cups Honey
- 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Dried fruit (e.g., cranberries, cherries, or apricots)
- 0.5 cups Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (170°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, raw nuts, raw seeds, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
In a small saucepan over low heat, gently heat the honey and melted coconut oil until they are fully combined. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the honey-coconut oil mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Spread the granola mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting. Keep a close eye on the granola in the last few minutes to prevent burning.
Remove the granola from the oven when it is golden brown and fragrant. Allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet; it will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried fruit and optional dark chocolate chips.
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
