Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, stir oats, protein powder, cinnamon, hemp seeds, and pumpkin seeds. Set aside.
In another bowl, add avocado oil, maple syrup, and peanut butter. Microwave for 20-30 seconds or until it's easy to stir the ingredients together into a smooth mixture.
Pour the liquid ingredients onto the dry ingredients and stir to coat very well. It's getting difficult to stir as you go, but keep stirring until no powder can be seen and all ingredients are coated with the liquids. If too dry, you can add an extra tablespoon of oil or maple syrup.
Spread the granola onto the prepared baking sheet into a single layer.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, shaking halfway.
Remove from the oven when the granola is fragrant and golden brown.
Cool completely, on the tray, without touching at all, so it crisps up and forms lovely clusters.
Stir in coconut flakes and dried cranberries.
Serving
Serve over a protein shake, smoothie bowl, or protein fluff.
Storage
Store in a glass mason jar in the pantry up to 1 month.
