Ingredients
- 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups nuts pecans, walnuts, almonds, cashews are all favorites

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees. In a large bowl combine oats, nuts, shredded coconut, brown sugar, (and flour if using) and give it a good stir.
- In a smaller bowl or a glass measuring cup stir together oil, maple syrup or honey, salt, and cinnamon and vanilla (if using). Pour over oat mixture and stir until well incorporated.
- Spread granola mixture evenly on a large sheet pan. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even baking. Allow to cool completely on the pan undisturbed for best clusters.
- After granola has completely cooled, stir in dried fruit if using. Store in airtight container at room temperature up to 3 weeks. Serve plain, with milk, or over yogurt. Enjoy!
Notes
- Flour/Oat Flour: this is optional and helps to create larger granola clusters.
- Sugars: feel free to adjust the amount of sugars in this recipe to your liking. This is my favorite version as written for flavor and texture.
