Ingredients
- 100 grams raw almonds
- 100 grams raw walnuts
- 50 grams raw pumpkin seeds
- 50 grams raw sunflower seeds
- 30 grams chia seeds
- 30 grams flaxseeds
- 30 grams unsweetened shredded coconut
- 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 50 grams erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and shredded coconut.
Step 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the extra virgin olive oil, erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until the sweetener is fully dissolved.
Step 4
Pour the olive oil mixture over the nuts and seeds in the mixing bowl. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are coated and evenly mixed.
Step 5
Spread the nut and seed mixture evenly over the lined baking sheet, pressing down slightly to form a cohesive layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Be sure to watch closely to prevent burning.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let the mixture cool completely on the baking sheet. The clusters will harden as they cool.
Step 8
Once completely cooled, break the mixture into clusters of your desired size and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
