Method
- Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
- Set your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. This helps prevent sticking and simplifies the cleanup process.
- Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together oats, almond flour, coconut flakes, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, cinnamon, and sea salt. Stir thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well blended.
- Step 3: Incorporate Wet Ingredients
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Pour this blend over the dry mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated.
- Step 4: Spread and Bake
- Distribute the granola mixture evenly on the lined baking tray. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until it turns golden and crispy.
- Step 5: Cool and Store
- Allow the granola to cool completely before breaking it into clusters. This step enhances its crunchiness and overall texture.
