Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups large flake rolled oats
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • ½ cup pecans roughly chopped
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup Maple Syrup
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • Line a large and rimmed cookie sheet or baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, almonds, pecans, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and sea salt.
  • Pour in coconut oil and maple syrup. Mix well until everything is well combined.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly in one layer.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes or until granola is crispy and nicely golden brown, stirring halfway. Granola will be further crispier upon cooling.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. If there are larger chunks, break them into smaller pieces.
  • Then add dried cranberries and mix well.

Storing Suggestions

  • Store the homemade granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 weeks. If it is not too hot in your kitchen, it stays up to a month.
  • You can also freeze it for a few months, sealed in a freezer bag. Then Bring it to room temperature before serving.
