Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup Pecans, chopped
- 0.33 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries or raisins (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, coconut flakes, chopped pecans, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly with the back of a spoon for cluster formation.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. Keep an eye on the granola in the last few minutes to prevent burning, especially around the edges.
Once the granola is golden brown and fragrant, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
If using dried cranberries or raisins, stir them into the granola after it has cooled.
Transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage. It will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks at room temperature.
