Ingredients

Dry ingredients:
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup pepitas green pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup whole almonds
1 tablespoon hemp hearts or sesame, chia or flax seeds
Wet ingredients:
1 medium very ripe banana
2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the 1 cup coconut, pepitas and almonds until chopped to the approximate size of rolled oats. Transfer to a medium bowl along with the hemp hearts.
In the same food processor (no need to clean), process the banana, 2 tablespoons coconut, vanilla and salt until smooth.
Add the banana mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring to coat; spread evenly on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes; open oven and stir granola. Bake granola 8 minutes longer.
Reduce oven temperature to 200F. Open oven and stir granola again. Continue baking granola for 20 to 30 minutes until granola is dry and golden brown. Cool completely on baking sheet.

Notes

Storage: Store the granola in an airtight jar or other container in a cool, dark place (at room temperature) for up to 1 month or the freezer for up to 6 months.
