Instructions

Step 1

Enjoy!

Step 2

Makes about 2 quarts

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 275F. Line 2 9x13 baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 4

Place the rolled oats, chopped nuts, spices, and salt into a medium bowl and mix well. Add melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla to the oat mixture and mix together.

Step 5

Spread half of the mixture onto each baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir with a spatula. Return the baking sheets to the oven and bake another 10 minutes. Your granola should be golden brown and nicely toasted.

Step 6

Mix in coconut and dried fruit if you’re using it at this time. Let cool completely before transferring to a large glass jar. I use 2 1-quart ball jars. Seal tightly and store at room temperature for 2-3 weeks.

Step 7

Enjoy!
