Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, unsweetened coconut flakes, and flaxseeds.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.
Spread the granola mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet, allowing the granola to harden and clump as it cools.
Once cooled, break the granola into clusters if desired and store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
