Granola


2 cups certified gluten-free oats
1/4 cup flax seeds
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup shredded coconut
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (enjoy life)
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup organic natural crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
5 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

DIRECTIONS:
Combine all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. In a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, and vanilla. Once the peanut butter mixture is combined, mix it with the dry ingredients until the oat mixture is moistened. Press the granola in a shallow pan lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30 minutes at 300 degrees. *The granola will get crispier and crunchier as it cools.
Cool for at least 20 minutes and store in a sealed container.
