Preparation Instructions

Preheat the oven to 300.

In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together the coconut oil, honey, orange juice, sunflower butter and salt. Once it is bubbling, stir in the quinoa and turn off the heat.

Toss the oats, sunflower, sesame and chia seeds together. Pour the goo on top and fold.

Spread in a baking dish or two, in an even layer. Bake for 20 minutes. Using a large spatula, flip over the granola in large pieces. It will fall apart a bit, but this method will help create clumps and chunks of tasty granola. Continue to bake, checking and flipping every 10-20 minutes until the granola is dry and not too crunchy. It will be slightly golden as well.

Reduce the oven heat if it starts to darken too quickly.
