Ingredients you need per step are listed below the step in Italic

Preheat the oven to 300 °F or 265 °F.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the oats, walnuts, pistachios, sunflower oil, shredded coconut, cinnamon, and sea salt.
⅔ cups instant oats, ¼ cup walnuts, ¼ cup pistachios, 3 tablespoons sunflower oil, 3 tablespoons shredded coconut, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon sea salt
Spread the mixture evenly on the baking tray.
Bake for 10 minutes, then stir everything well.
Bake for another 10 minutes.
Blend the dates in a blender until smooth. Mix the date paste and chopped chocolate into the warm granola.
15 dried dates, 2 oz. dark chocolate
Let the granola cool completely on the baking tray.
Store in a sealed jar in a dry place.

1. Add dried fruit like cranberries or raisins for extra sweetness.

2. Try different chocolate: swap dark chocolate for milk or white chocolate for a creamier taste.

3. Bake it evenly: spread the granola in a flat layer on the baking tray.

4. Storage Tips

Room temperature: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It stays fresh for at least 2 weeks.
Refrigerator: Do not store in the fridge—it will get moist and lose its crunch.
Freezer: Not recommended—freezing makes the granola soft instead of crispy.
