Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup chopped raw almonds, 1 cup chopped raw pecans, 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/2 cup sunflower seeds, and 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut.
Step 2: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup coconut oil with 1/3 cup raw honey, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp sea salt.
Step 3: Pour the wet mixture over the nut and seed mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all pieces evenly.
Step 4: Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, pressing down gently to form clusters.
Step 5: Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and fragrant. Let cool completely on the baking sheet to allow granola to harden into clusters before breaking into pieces.
