Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, pumpkin seeds, and shredded coconut.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, warm the honey, coconut oil, and ground cinnamon over low heat until melted and combined. Stir well.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 7–8 minutes to prevent burning, until golden brown and fragrant.
