3 ½ cups rolled oats
½ cup pumpkin seeds pepitas
1 cup mixed dried berries like cranberries, raisins, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, currants, Goji berries, etc.
⅔ cup unsweetened coconut flakes

Preheat oven to 300F.
Mix the maple syrup, honey, vanilla, and oil in a small bowl.
In a large bowl, mix well oats and pumpkin seeds. Pour over the syrup and stir until all the dry ingredients get coated.
Grab a large baking sheet and cover it with parchment paper. Spread the oats mixture on this pan and bake it in the oven for 15 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven, add the dried berries and coconut, and mix well. Return the pan to the oven and continue baking for another 10 minutes.
Remove again from the oven and allow the granola to cool in the pan.
Store in an airtight container.

Use any kind of dried berries you like.
Use any kind of vegetable oil you have available. I use sunflower oil, but other neutral oils can work as well.
Use unsweetened coconut. I used unsweetened coconut flakes.
Tip: My recipe doesn't contain nuts, and it is suitable for people who cannot have them. However, if you want to add some nuts, prepare the basic recipe, adding ½ cup chopped pecans and ½ cup chopped hazelnuts.
