Ingredients

• 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds, roughly chopped
• 1 cup Raw pecans, roughly chopped
• 1 cup Raw sunflower seeds
• 1 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1 cup Maple syrup
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Dried cranberries

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, sunflower seeds, and shredded coconut. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a smaller bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it lightly with a spatula to create a compact layer for maximum clumpiness.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. Keep an eye on the edges to prevent burning.

Step 7

Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. As it cools, the granola will crisp up and form clusters.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries for a pop of color and sweetness.

Step 9

Transfer the granola to an airtight container or jar for storage. Enjoy with yogurt, milk, or as a standalone snack!
