Vegan Paleo Nut & Seed Granola

This granola is the kind of thing you make once and immediately want to keep a jar of on the counter at all times. Four kinds of nuts — almonds, pecans, cashews, and walnuts — get tossed with pumpkin, sunflower, and sesame seeds, then bound together with melted coconut oil and maple syrup for a naturally sweet, deeply satisfying crunch. The warm notes of cinnamon and ginger make the whole kitchen smell incredible while it bakes. Because every ingredient here is whole and plant-based, there's no dairy, no honey, and no animal products hiding anywhere in the mix — just real food doing exactly what it's supposed to do. The trick to getting those satisfying clusters is pressing the mixture firmly before baking and again right when it comes out of the oven, then leaving it completely alone to cool and crisp up. Toss in some dried cranberries or raisins at the end for a little chewy contrast, or keep it pure and nutty — either way it's fantastic over coconut yogurt, with plant-based milk, or eaten straight from the jar by the handful.
