Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 cups oats
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seed kernels
- 1/2 cup chopped raw almonds
- 1/2 cup sunflower seed kernels
- 3/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup roasted peanuts
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine oats, pumpkin seed kernels, chopped almonds, and sunflower seed kernels in a large bowl.
In a saucepan on the stove, melt together the honey, coconut oil, cinnamon, and vanilla until combined, stirring occasionally.
Pour honey mixture over oat mixture and stir to coat.
