Ingredients
- 4 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup coconut flakes
- 1 cup cashew nuts
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 cup Mixed Seeds (I used a mixture of sesame, flax, sunflower and pumpkin seeds)
- ½ cup coconut oil
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
- Combine all the oats, nuts and seeds in a large mixing bowl.
- Melt together the coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and salt.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and mix well.
- Transfer to a non-stick rimmed baking sheet.
- Place in the oven and allow to bake for 15-20 minutes. Stir the granola every 7-10 minutes to allow even browning. Take care not to burn the granola as the maple syrup will caramelize quickly.
- Remove the baked granola from the oven and allow to cool completely before transferring to an airtight jar and storing for up to 2 months.
