Combine one bag each of pecans, cashews, almonds, and dried cranberries.
Melt together half a cup honey with six tablespoons coconut oil; stir in one teaspoon vanilla and one and a half teaspoons cinnamon. Pour this mixture over all the other ingredients and toss well.
Bake at 275 degrees, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove after about 20-25 minutes, or keep baking for up to 30 minutes for extra crispiness.
For reference, I used a 10 oz bag of pecans, a 16 oz bag of almonds, a 10 oz bag of cashews, and a 6 oz bag of dried cranberries. Feel free to adjust amounts as you like. Capital T refers to tablespoon.
