Step 1

Heat oven to 300 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the oats,

pistachios, coconut, pumpkin seeds and salt.

Fold liquids into the mixture of oats, making sure to coat the dry

ingredients well.

silicone baking mat, and spread granola over it. Bake until dry

cherries. Allow to cool to room temperature before transferring to

a storage container. Makes about 6 cups.
