  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in chopped nuts, dried cranberries, and sunflower seeds.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
