Ingredients
- 3 cups Gluten-free rolled oats
- 1/2 cup Almonds, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup Cashews , roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup Sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup Pumpkin seeds
- 1/3 cup Dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup Raisins
- 1/4 cup Honey, or maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons Coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, chopped almonds, chopped cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir to mix evenly.
- Pour in the melted coconut oil, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all dry ingredients are evenly coated.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet. Press firmly into an even layer to help form clusters while baking.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, stirring gently halfway through for even browning. Keep an eye on the granola to prevent burning.
- Allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet without stirring. This helps the clusters form naturally.
- Once cooled, gently mix in the dried cranberries and raisins.
- Transfer the granola clusters to an airtight container. Store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for longer storage.
