Ingredients

• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 1 cup Raw walnuts
• 1 cup Raw pecans
• 1 cup Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
• 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries (optional)

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 almonds, walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, chia seeds, ground cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the honey and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the nut and seed mixture, stirring until everything is well coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a single layer.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. The granola is done when it turns golden brown and aromatic.

Step 7

Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. It will continue to crisp up as it cools.

Step 8

If using, stir in the dried cranberries once the granola has cooled.

Step 9

Transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage. It will keep well for up to two weeks.
