- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Combine the dry ingredients (oats, almonds, pecans, spices, brown sugar) and vanilla into a large mixing bowl.
- Next, dice the Pinata apple up into one-inch or smaller cubes.
- Melt the coconut oil and mix with the flaxseeds, applesauce, and honey in a small bowl.
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and stir to coat. Fold in the diced Pinata apples.
- Spread the oat mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and place into the oven.
- After 10 minutes, open the oven and stir the oats, turning the mix to prevent burning.
- Repeat this process until the wet mixture has cooked, but before the granola has hardened too much, about 30-35 minutes. Allow the granola to cool!
- Enjoy immediately or place in glass containers to store for up to 10 days.
