   Preheat oven to 325˚F. In a large mixing bowl, combined 3 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup coconut flakes, 1 cup pumpkin seeds and 1/4 cup flax seeds.

2. 2

   In a second bowl, stir together 1/4 cup coconut oil,** 1/4 cup honey, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp salt. They will combine easier if you heat them in the microwave 15-30 seconds.

   Drizzle the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients and gently toss/stir until evenly coated. Spread out onto a really large 3/4 baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 325˚F for 18-20 minutes, stirring once halfway through baking for even toasting. Remove from the oven and let cool completely then crumble with your hands and store in an airtight container at room temperature.
