Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups raw almonds roughly chopped
  • 1 cup raw pecans roughly chopped
  • 1 cup raw walnuts roughly chopped
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 2 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp monk fruit sweetener or 1 tbsp honey optional
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all chopped nuts, coconut flakes, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, sweetener if using, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt.
  4. Pour the wet mixture over the nut mixture and stir thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Spread the granola mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet, pressing down gently to create clusters.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes without stirring, until golden brown and fragrant, checking at 15 minutes to ensure it's not burning.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet without stirring to allow clusters to form.
  8. Once completely cool, break into desired cluster sizes and store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
