Ingredients

• 3 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds, chopped
• 1 cup Raw walnuts, chopped
• 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup Dried unsweetened 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 walnuts, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together the unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir everything together until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the dried unsweetened cranberries.

Step 9

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