Make sure the oven rack is in the center position and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine the honey and butter in a small saucepan. Heat on low heat and stir until melted. Remove from the heat.
Combine the oats, mixed nuts, coconut, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and salt in a large bowl. Stir with a large wooden spoon to mix well.
Pour the honey butter over the oat mixture and stir until well combined.
Spread the granola evenly in a thin layer on a baking sheet.
Bake, stirring every 5 minutes with a wooden spoon to prevent the granola from sticking or burning, until fragrant and golden brown, about 20 minutes. (Do not overcook-the granola will crisp as it cools.)
Using oven mitts or pot holders, remove the baking sheet from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool. When completely cooled, transfer the granola to a large mixing bowl and stir in the dried fruit.
Transfer to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 1 week.
