Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the oats, coconut, pecans, chia, and flax seeds until well combined.
In a small saucepan, combine the coconut oil, honey, cocoa, and vanilla. Heat over low heat until it just starts to boil (about 1 minute), then remove from heat.
Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is well coated.
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
After 25 minutes, stir the granola again and return it to the oven for an additional 10 minutes, stirring every 3-4 minutes to prevent burning. Keep an eye on it—the last 10 minutes are crucial to get that perfect crunch without burning. Take a little taste test each time you stir to check if it’s crispy enough.
Once it’s done, let it cool completely before enjoying. The granola will get even crunchier as it cools.
