Ingrédients
  

  • 3 cups rolled oats (750 ml)
  • 3/4 cup coconut unsweetened shredded (180 ml)
  • 1 cup almonds slivered (250 ml)
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds raw (125 ml)
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds raw (125 ml)
  • 1/4 cup flaxseeds (60 ml)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar (125 ml)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar packed (75 ml)
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil (125 ml)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon ground (2.5 ml)
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt coarse, plus extra for sprinkling (2.5 ml)
  • 1/2 cup cranberries dried, or tart dried cherries, chopped (125 ml)
  • 1/2 cup apricots dried, chopped (125 ml)

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, coconut, almonds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, and flax.
  3. In a smaller bowl, whisk together maple syrup (or agave), sugar, olive oil, cinnamon and salt.
  4. Pour wet ingredients over oat mixture and stir well, until all ingredients are well-coated. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  5. Spread evenly over one or two lightly oiled or sprayed rimmed baking trays, pressing down lightly. Sprinkle with a pinch of coarse salt.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes, then stir granola, spreading evenly before returning to the oven. If you are using two baking trays, rotate position (up and down) after stirring.
  7. Bake for an additional 5 - 10 minutes, watching carefully towards the end. Granola should be toasted throughout and golden brown around the edges.
  8. Remove from oven and cool completely before breaking into clumps.
  9. Once cool, add dried fruit, stir and transfer to airtight containers.
