# 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 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
|
|
The granola will further crisp up as it cools.
|
|
|
|
6. Let the granola cool completely, undisturbed (at least 45 minutes).

## Notes
|
|
|
|
* Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 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.
