INGREDIENTS
160g Mixed Unsalted Nuts (walnuts, cashews, almonds, macadamias, pecans etc)
7 Dried Apricots *see notes
5 Pitted Medjool Dates
80g Shredded/flaked Coconut
1-2 tsp Cinnamon, ground, adjust to taste
2 tsp Vanilla Bean extract
30g Pepita/Pumpkin seeds
30g Sunflower Seeds
30g Coconut Oil (soft/semi melted, see notes)
Optional 3 TBsp dried Goji Berries/Cranberries/Blueberries
Optional 3 TBsp Hemp Seeds
Optional 3 TBsp Cacao nibs

METHOD
1. Preheat Oven to 150 Degrees Celsius Fan Forced and prepare/line a baking tray (or 2)
2. Add Nuts, Apricots, Dates and Coconut into Mixing Bowl. TURBO / 0.5 SEC / x4 pulses.
3. Add everything else except for optional ingredients and MIX / REVERSE / 20 SEC / SP 3.
4. Spread the mixture out evenly (use 2 trays if needed, the shallower the mixture in the tray the more even and quicker it will bake)
5. Bake until golden brown (20-30 mins) stirring every 10 mins.
6. Once baked, stir in any of the optional ingredients: Goji Berries/Hemp Seeds/Cranberries/Blueberries/Cacao nibs if using and allow to completely cool before storing.

VARIATIONS:
1. Replace Apricots with 3 extra dates, 50g dried Cranberries or 50g dried Blueberries or leave them out.
2. If using dried Cranberries/Blueberries, add them after baking (Step 6) instead of Step 2.
3. To make the recipe go further and if you aren't concerned about it being Gluten free or higher in Carbs, add approx 100g Whole Rolled Oats into Step 3. Alternatively, set some mixture aside without Oats and add Oats to another part for other family members.
4. Use Butter instead of Coconut Oil.
5. DOUBLE BATCH: Double all ingredients, follow recipe as is, use 2 or more baking trays to spread out the mixture. Cooking time may vary slightly.
6. Replace Cinnamon with 2 TBsp Cacao powder for a Chocolate Granola.
