Sweet Nut and Seed Granola

Take a look at this colorful granola masterpiece. It’s not just food; it’s a work of art you can eat!

Sweet Nut and Seed Granola

Now, let’s gather our star players for the recipe:

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup mixed nuts (almonds, pecans, walnuts – your choice!)
  • 1/2 cup seeds (pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds are our faves)
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup (the sweet stuff!)
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted (or your good old olive oil)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (because why not?)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (just a pinch to keep it classy)
  • Optional: A sprinkle of cinnamon or a handful of dried cranberries and chocolate chips for that extra flair!

Alright, let’s whip this up!

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Just imagine the warmth, like a hug for your tummy.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the oats, nuts, seeds, salt, and any optional goodies you’ve chosen. Stir it up like you mean it!
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the honey (or syrup), melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until blended. It’s gonna smell like heaven! Pour this sweet concoction over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is coated nicely.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet. Get every bit on that tray. No oatmeal soldier left behind!
  5. Bake it for about 25-30 minutes, stirring it halfway through to ensure it gets that golden color and toasty flavor. Keep an eye on it because you want it crispy, not burnt – unless you like it that way, no judgment here!
  6. Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool (if you can resist). It will become even crunchier. When it’s cooled down, you can stir in any dried fruits or chocolate chips you can’t resist.
  7. Store it in an airtight container to keep the crunch alive—if it lasts that long!

Now, take a scoop, grab your favorite bowl, and enjoy your creation! This granola is so good, your taste buds might throw a party. Happy munching!
