# Granola
|
||
|
||
## Ingredients
|
||
|
||
* **2 cups** old-fashioned rolled oats
|
||
* **3⁄4 cup** raw nuts and/or seeds
|
||
* **1⁄2 tsp.** fine-grain sea salt or standard table salt
|
||
* **1⁄4 tsp.** ground cinnamon
|
||
* **1⁄4 cup** melted coconut oil or olive oil
|
||
* **1⁄4 cup** maple syrup or honey
|
||
* **1⁄2 tsp.** vanilla extract
|
||
* **1⁄4 cup** coconut flakes
|
||
|
||
## Instructions
|
||
|
||
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
|
||
|
||
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the **oats**, **nuts and/or seeds**, **salt**, and **cinnamon**.
|
||
Stir to blend.
|
||
|
||
3. Pour in the **oil**, **maple syrup or honey**, and **vanilla**.
|
||
Mix well, until every oat is lightly coated.
|
||
Pour the granola onto the prepared pan
|
||
and use a large spoon to spread it into an even layer.
|
||
|
||
4. Bake for 10 minutes, add **coconut flakes** and stir.
|
||
Press the stirred granola into the pan with a spatula to create a more even layer.
|
||
|
||
5. Bake until lightly golden (10--12 minutes).
|
||
|
||
6. Let the granola cool completely, undisturbed (at least 45 minutes).
|
||
|
||
## Notes
|
||
|
||
* Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks,
|
||
or in a sealed freezer bag in the freezer for up to 3 months.
|
||
|
||
* Use olive oil for a slightly savory granola,
|
||
or coconut oil for a more neutral flavor.
|
||
|
||
* Use maple syrup for a sweet, distinctly maple-flavored granola
|
||
with few or no clumps.
|
||
|
||
Use honey for a more neutral flavored, clumpy granola.

## Chef's Notes
|
||
|
||
I have made this recipe many dozens of times,
|
||
nearing a hundred if not already past it,
|
||
on account of me eating it every day.
|
||
|
||
Last time I checked the cost per recipe was right at $5.
