Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Almonds, chopped
- 1 cup Pecans, chopped
- 1 cup Walnuts, chopped
- 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and shredded coconut. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Stir thoroughly until the dry ingredients are evenly coated with the wet mixture.
Spread the granola mixture evenly across the prepared baking sheet, pressing down slightly to create a compact layer for an extra crunchy texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, gently stir the mixture, and re-spread it evenly.
Return the granola to the oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until it is golden brown and fragrant. Be sure to watch closely towards the end to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, break the granola into clusters and store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
