Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tbsp ground flax seed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cup dried coconut
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small saucepan, warm the coconut oil until it's just melted. Remove from the heat and add the maple syrup and vanilla.
  • In a large bowl mix together the oats, seeds, pecans, cinnamon and salt.
  • Pour the oil mixture over the dry ingredients and mix well. Everything should be coated in the oil and syrup. Transfer this to a baking shoot and spread out evenly. Do not compress it yet.
  • Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and mix around. Now add the coconut and mix it in. Take a flipper and compress the granols now. Press it down as much as you can. Bake for 15-18 minutes. The coconut will be browned and the granola should be golden.
  • remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely before breaking it up.
  • Store in an air tight container!

Notes

Make sure all the ingredients are gluten free if that is needed.
If you accidentally leave out the granola too long and it goes stale, pop it into the oven at 400° and let it heat for 10 minutes. 
Add in some dried fruit if you like!
