Ingredients

  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup raw pecans roughly chopped or pulsed a few times in a food processor (leaving a few larger pieces)
  • 1/2 cup raw cashews roughly chopped or pulsed a few times in a food processor (leaving a few larger pieces)
  • ½ cup whole almonds
  • 1 cup coconut flakes
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 Tbsp ground flaxseeds
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil use refined to avoid any coconut flavor
  • 1/4 cup creamy nut butter / seed butter / tahini of choice
  • 3 Tbsp pure maple syrup or preferred sticky liquid sweetener [can sub sugar-free maple syrup for lower carb / lower sugar]
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt or kosher salt

Optional add-ins:

  • ⅓ - ½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
  • 2-3 Tbsp dried cranberries or dried fruit of choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the nuts in a large mixing bowl. Add the coconut flakes, flaxseeds, and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the nut / seed butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla and salt. Pour over the dry mixture. Stir well to combine.
  4. Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and use a spatula to gently stir and flip the granola chunks over. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 5-8 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely. Break granola into preferred-sized clusters.
  7. Stir in add-ins of choice and serve with your favorite yogurt or milk (dairy-free or regular).
  8. Store leftover granola in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
