Grainola

Grain-ola
Adapted from Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Cooking

4 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup unsalted raw sunflower seeds
1 cup walnuts, chopped into quarters
1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1 1/2 cups assorted dried fruits (we used cranberries and apricots), chopped
Grated zest of 2 oranges
3/4 cup honey
1/4 cup coconut oil

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Combine oats, sunflower seeds, walnuts, coconut, and zest in a large bowl. Add honey and coconut oil to a small saucepan and whisk together over low heat until combined well. Pour over dry ingredients and stir  to coat.

Spread evenly onto a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent edges from burning. Dump back into large bowl, add dried fruit, and mix together. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
