1/2 tsp ceylon cinnamon

Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl combine the 1 cup chopped pistachios, ¼ cup flax seeds, ¼ cup hemp hearts, ½ cup pumpkin seeds, ¼ coconut flakes, 1 tsp sea salt and ½ tsp ceylon cinnamon.
-
Add the honey into a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, or until the honey has a thin consistency. Squeeze the juice of ½ a lemon into the same bowl and stir to combine.
-
Pour the honey and lemon mixture into the dry mixture and mix thoroughly. Spread the mixture in a thin layer across the prepared baking sheet and place it in the oven for 10 minutes. Turn the baking sheet and bake for another 8 minutes.
-
Let the granola completely cool on the baking sheet. Once cool, break it apart and store in an airtight container.
