Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups oatmeal
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1/4 cup honey or date syrup
  • 1 cup flaked coconut

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Add the oatmeal, oat flour, seeds, and sea salt to a mixing bowl.
  • In a small bowl, add coconut oil and honey or date syrup, and microwave for 30-40 seconds until mixture is heated and easily mixes together (this might need a longer microwave time if you're coconut oil is solid to start).
  • Pour the coconut oil and honey mixture over the dry ingredients, and mix until there are no dry spots left.
  • Add in a thin layer over a baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, and then gently stir granola and mix in the flaked coconut.
  • Continue to bake for another 10 minutes-12 minutes, until the color is lightly toasted.
  • Sometimes if I am not sure my granola is crunchy enough, I will turn the oven off, allow a little heat to escape, and then leave the granola in the hot (but turned off) oven for another 5-10 minutes.
  • Allow to full cool before stirring so the clusters have time to firm up.
  • Store in the refrigerator or the freezer for the longest lasting granola.
