Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups oats gluten free
  • 1 cup puffed quinoa
  • 1 cup almonds
  • ¾ cup pecans, roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp cardamom
  • 1 tsp ceylon cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • cup coconut oil, melted or other neutral oil
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Mix ins after the granola has baked

  • dried cranberries
  • roasted coconut flakes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 170℃ and prepare one baking tray.
  • Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add all of the wet ingredients to the granola and mix again until all the pieces are covered in the wet ingredients.
  • Pour the granola over the baking tray and spread it out as an even layer.
  • Bake the granola for 10 minutes, then stir and spread it out again evenly and pat down so nice clumps form.
  • Bake the granola again for about 8-10 minutes until the granola is golden brown.
  • Let the granola rest for 45 minutes until it has completely cooled. This enables the pieces to clump together better.
  • Break the granola into chunks, add the coconut flakes and cranberries.
  • Store the granola in an air tight container.
  • Enjoy with your favourite (vegan) milk or yogurt, or on a smoothie bowl! :)
