Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the maple syrup, natural peanut butter, and coconut oil.
Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornflakes and chopped almonds.
Pour the maple syrup mixture over the cornflakes and almonds, and gently toss until the cornflakes are thoroughly coated.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet, which will help it crisp up.
Once the cornflakes are cooled, serve them with unsweetened almond milk or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
