Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup hemp seeds
  • ½ cup walnuts chopped
  • ¼ cup ground flax seeds
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt crystals
  • cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your oven to 180°C and lining a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients: rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, walnuts, ground flax seeds, ground cinnamon, and a generous pinch of salt crystals.
  • In a small bowl, combine extra virgin olive oil, maple syrup, and brown sugar.
  • Stir gently until the sugar dissolves, and the mixture looks smooth and glossy.
  • Now stir in a splash of vanilla extract, then pour the wet ingredients mixture over the dry ingredients in the bowl.
  • Using a wooden spoon mix everything until the oats and seeds are evenly coated.
  • Once coated, spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly to encourage those coveted clusters.
  • Bake the granola in the preheated oven for about 25–30 minutes, turning the baking sheet halfway through to ensure even toasting.
  • When the granola is beautifully golden brown and fragrant, remove it from the oven. It will still feel soft when hot, but as it cools on the pan, it crisps up into that perfect crunch.
  • Once cooled completely, break the granola into clusters and store it in an airtight container.
  • Sprinkle it over yogurt, toss it in milk, or snack on it straight from the jar.
