Ingredients

• 3 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened dried cranberries
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, raw almonds, sunflower seeds, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, gently heat the maple syrup and coconut oil over low heat until the coconut oil is melted. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir well to ensure all the dry ingredients are coated with the wet mixture.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will become crispier as it cools.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries and chia seeds.

Step 9

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
