Cooking instruction summary:
Preheat the oven to 275 F. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, coconut, pecans, pepitas, and almond slices. In a separate small bowl, add the coconut oil (it will be solid at room temperature), honey and vanilla. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir to finish melting the coconut oil. Stir in the salt. If the coconut oil still isn't melted, microwave just a little longer and stir again to mix and melt away any chunks.Pour the coconut oil mixture over the oat mixture in the big bowl and stir to coat all the oats and nuts in the oil mixture. Pour the granola into a large flat jelly roll pan with a lip and smooth it out so it's one even layer. Roast in the oven for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes, until the granola is golden brown and nicely toasted. (I roasted it for 1 hour 45 minutes.)Sprinkle the raisins over top and stir a bit to mix them into the mixture. Store in an airtight container.
