Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup raw walnuts
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup maple syrup
3 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, ground flaxseed, turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, add the maple syrup and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well combined.

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir until all the dry ingredients are thoroughly coated.

Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.

Remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.

Once cooled, transfer the granola to an airtight container. It can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
