Granola Dry Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 4 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice if you’re feeling fall)
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 cup whole flaxseeds (chia seeds or pumpkin seeds are great alternatives)
  • 2 cups nuts (we used 1/2 cup of each: almonds, cashews, pecans, and hazelnuts)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (can substitute for more nuts or dried fruit)

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1-2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350℉. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. We used two baking sheets.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
  3. In a separate bowl, add your maple syrup, melted coconut oil and vanilla extract. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix well until evenly coated.
  4. Spread your mixture onto the lined baking sheet and press down with a spatula into an even layer. Cook for 24 to 26 minutes, stirring halfway through. Be sure to press your granola back down onto the baking sheet before returning it to the oven.
  5. Remove from the oven. Allow to cool for at least 45 minutes before serving. Enjoy on its own, on top of your favorite yogurt or smoothie bowl. Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
