Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped pecans, sliced almonds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well blended.
  4. Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and fragrant.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before adding any optional dried fruits.

Notes

  • For a crispier granola, ensure it cools completely on the baking sheet without disturbing it.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
  • The oven temperature was adjusted to 325°F (160°C) in a later instruction, use 325°F for baking.
  • The ingredient list includes shredded coconut, but it’s not mentioned in the instructions; it should be added with the dry ingredients.
