Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 1 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, raw almonds, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Remove from heat and stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix until all the oats and almonds are evenly coated.
Spread the mixture in an even layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the pan, gently stir the granola to ensure even toasting, and return it to the oven for another 10 minutes or until golden brown and fragrant.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the pan. It will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries.
Transfer the granola to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
