Servings 6 cups
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
- 3/4 cup raw walnuts
- 1/4 cup flax seeds
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup tahini
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup cacao nibs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325ºF and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the oats, spices, nuts, and seeds.
- In a small saucepan, melt the coconut oil. Whisk in the maple syrup, tahini, vanilla, and salt. Once this is all combined , remove from heat and fold into the dry mixture until it's evenly coated and no dry bits remain.
- Transfer granola mixture to the prepped baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Bake for 20 mins, rotate the pan and bake for a further 12 to 15 mins, or until golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for completely.
- Once the granola has had a chance to cool down and harden, use your hands to break into large chunks. Mix in the cranberries and cacao nibs, then transfer to an airtight container. The granola will keep for about a month, but I doubt it will last that long :)
