Preheat oven to 300. I use my broiler pan lined with a silpat pad or parchment paper and find that this is the perfect sized pan for this amount.

Place oats, cashews or macs and almonds on pan. Mix so everything is evenly distributed.

In a 4 cup measuring cup or a medium sized bowl, combine coconut oil, brown sugar, honey and salt. Mix this up and place in microwave for 1 minute on high. Stir and then place in microwave on power 7 for 1 minute. All microwaves are different. If you want to do this on the stove you can. All you are trying to do is dissolve the sugar and liquify the coconut oil. Do not burn this. Whisk again well, to make sure everything is combined. Pour over oat mixture and mix this until everything is well coated. I use a spatula and press it down firmly in one layer in the pan.

Place in oven and bake for 25 minutes. Now using a flipper type spatula,  turn the granola over in large pieces. Press down gently so as not to break up your clumps, and place in oven for another 20 minutes. Watch toward the end, because you don’t want to burn your granola!

Take granola out of oven and sprinkle with pineapple, coconut and raisins. Granola will crisp as it cools. After it cools, it can be broken into large pieces. I use a large zip lock bag and break it into small pieces and some large shards. Perfect for eating right out of the bag!
