Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans)
  • 1/4 cup seeds (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped nuts, seeds, and shredded coconut.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together honey or maple syrup, olive oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and mix until everything is well coated.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and crunchy.
  7. Let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will continue to crisp up as it cools.
  8. Break apart any large clumps and store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Feel free to customize with your favorite nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.
  • Add dried fruit after the granola has cooled to prevent it from burning.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
