Paleo Granola

This is a super good granola for everyone not just those of us who don't eat gluten :)

Paleo Granola

2 cups blanched, sliced almonds
1 cup pecans
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup freshly ground flax seeds
3/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup honey
6 tbsps coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 cup dried cranberries

Preheat oven to 275 F.
Combine all the nuts and seeds and the coconut in a large bowl.
Over low heat, combine honey and coconut oil until heated through. Stir in vanilla and spices until smooth.
Pour over the nut/seed mixture and mix well.
Spread into a big baking pan or baking sheet.
Bake for about 45 to 50 minutes or until golden brown, stirring every 15 minutes or less to keep edges from burning and to cook evenly. Watch carefully.
Remove from oven and let cool. And then add cranberries (or other dried fruit)

Enjoy!!
