Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup raw almonds (chopped)
- 0.5 cup raw pecans (chopped)
- 0.5 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.5 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 0.25 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup dried cranberries
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, chopped pecans, pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well, ensuring all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing down lightly to form a compact layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. For chunkier granola, avoid stirring.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
Step 8
Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries and transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage.
Step 9
Enjoy your granola with yogurt, milk, or by itself as a snack!
