Ingredients
- Dry ingredients:
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, gluten free if desired
- 1/4 cup oat flour, gluten free if desired
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Pinch of sea salt
- 3/4 cup raw cashews
- 3/4 cup raw pecans
- 1/2 cup raw walnuts
- 1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup raw sliced almonds
- 1/2 cup hemp seeds/hearts
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (not shredded coconut)
- Wet ingredients:
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, stir together oats, oat flour, flaxseed meal, cinnamon, salt, cashews, pecans, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sliced almonds, hemp seeds and coconut flakes. Set aside.
- Next, add coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a small saucepan and place over low heat, stirring frequently until coconut oil is completely melted. Pour over dry ingredients and mix well until oats are completely coated.
- Next spread the granola on the baking sheet in an even layer and press down using a spatula (we’re going to bake it like it’s one big cookie!). Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and fragrant. Once done, remove from the oven and allow the granola to cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before you break it into large clumps.
- Transfer to an airtight container or large mason jar. Makes 12-14 servings.
Notes
How to make your own oat flour: You can easily make your own gluten free oat flour by simply placing oats into a blender and blending/pulsing until they’re smooth and resemble flour.
