Ingredients

  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cups pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 cup hemp seeds (hearts)
  • 1/2 cup cacao nibs
  • 1/2 cup coconut flakes optional

  • 1 tsp kosher salt maybe more
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup dried blueberries
  • 1/2 cup dried cherries

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl stir together the oats, seeds, and cacao nibs. Toss in oil and syrup. Add a nice sprinkle of kosher salt and turn out onto prepared baking sheet. Smooth out to a single layer and bake for 20-30 minutes. Rotate half way through and stir.
  • When seed mixture comes out of oven, pour into same bowl and let cool a few minutes. Add dried fruit and toss well. Pour back onto baking sheet and let cool completely.
  • You can store this in mason jars or other airtight container for 2 weeks in the pantry. You can also freeze for up to 3 months. This makes a great gift!
