Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats old-fashioned

- ½ cup walnuts raw, chopped
- ½ cup pumpkin seeds
- ½ cup dried plums chopped
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed ground
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Chop the nuts and dried fruits in a food processor or a manual food chopper (I love mine so much!).
- Combine the oats, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and salt in a large bowl. Mix well.
- In a small saucepan, heat the maple syrup, coconut oil or vegetable oil, and vanilla extract over low heat until melted and well combined.
- Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until evenly coated.
- Spread the granola mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will become crunchier as it cools.
