Servings4 1/2 cups

3 cups assorted nuts, preferably raw and unsalted
½ cup natural coconut flakes
½ cup raisins or dried cranberries
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
⅛ tsp ground cloves
2 tbsp coconut oil
¼ - ½ tsp coarse Kosher salt (if using table salt, use half the amount, or just add salt to taste)
½ cup dark chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 300 F.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, spread out the nuts, coconut and raisins. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and cloves.
Drizzle with the coconut oil (if it's melted), or just place a dollop of solid coconut oil in the middle of the nuts.
Bake for 5 minutes. Stir to coat everything in the melted coconut oil, and bake for 5 more minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt.
Cool completely before stirring in the chocolate chips.
Store in a glass jar or airtight container.
