Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 0.5 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons date syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, sliced almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the maple syrup, date syrup, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients. Add salt and cinnamon, and stir everything together until well combined and all dry ingredients are coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down gently with a spatula to form an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and crisp.
Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. It will become crispier as it cools.
Once cooled, mix in the raisins.
Transfer the granola to an airtight container or a glass jar for storage. Enjoy it by itself as a snack, or serve it with your favorite plant-based milk or yogurt.
