1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger

Preheat oven to 275. In a very large bowl combine 6 grain cereal, wheat bran, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, craisins, & coconut.
Heat in a medium saucepan coconut oil, molasses, vanilla, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, & allspice; gently whisk. Melt to a syrup like consistency and pour over dry ingredients. Stir to coat evenly. Pour over a 10x15 in cookie sheet and gently press down. Bake for 45 minutes. Turn the oven up to 325 & bake another 15 minutes. Stir the granola just once and let rest to room temperature. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container. DELISH!!!
