Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almonds
- 1 cup Pecans
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Flaxseeds
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and shredded coconut. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, stir in the erythritol and vanilla extract until the erythritol is completely dissolved.
Pour the melted mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir until all the nuts and seeds are well-coated.
Add the salt, and mix again to ensure it's evenly distributed.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing down gently to form a compact layer, about 1/2 inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Keep an eye on the clusters towards the end of baking to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on the baking sheet. As the clusters cool, they will harden.
Once fully cooled, break into bite-sized clusters and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
