Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 0.25 cup chia seeds
- 0.25 cup flaxseeds
- 0.25 cup hemp hearts
- 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.5 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, sliced almonds, coconut flakes, chia seeds, flaxseeds, hemp hearts, and vanilla protein powder. Stir them together until evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until all the oats and nuts are well coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down slightly with a spatula to form an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, break the granola into clusters and transfer to an airtight container for storage.
Enjoy the granola as a snack on its own, or serve it with your favorite yogurt or milk for a nutritious breakfast.
