Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
- 1 cup Dried cranberries or raisins
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, dried cranberries or raisins, and shredded coconut.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the butter mixture over the dry ingredients in the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
Step 7
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the mix cool completely on the tray. As it cools, it will become crisp.
Step 8
Once cooled, break the mix into clusters and transfer it to an airtight container. Store at room temperature for up to 1 week.
