Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup seeds of choice I used 1/4 cup sunflower seeds and 1/4 cup pepitas
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts I did a mix of chopped walnuts, pecans, and almonds
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free oats
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon or apple/pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 cup cranberries
  • 1/4 cup dried pineapple cut into smaller chunks if large
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chunks
  • 1/3 cup raw honey reduce by 2 teaspoons if you don't like much sweetness
  • 1/4 cup nut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Toast seeds/nuts on a sheet pan a 350°F for 5 minutes (optional).
  • In a large bowl combine the seeds, nuts, oats, chia seeds, coconut, sea salt, dried fruit, and chocolate.
