Ingredients

3 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup pepitas
2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted and slightly cooled (can use butter)
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
3/4 cup white chocolate chips, optional (can use dark chocolate chips)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a large-rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the oats, coconut, almonds, pecans, pepitas, flaxseed, cinnamon, and sea salt.
Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until mixture is well combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Use a spatula or the bottom of a measuring cup to press the granola down in an even layer.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until granola is slightly golden brown. DO NOT STIR, but make sure you rotate the pan halfway through the baking time.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the pan without stirring.
When the granola is completely cooled, break into clusters and stir in the freeze-dried strawberries and white chocolate chips, if using. Enjoy!
