Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cups rolled oats old fashioned
  • 2 cups nuts pecans, walnuts, almonds, cashews are all favorites
  • ¾ cup coconut shredded, sweetened
  • cup pure maple syrup or honey
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup neutral cooking oil vegetable oil or coconut oil, generic cooking oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons flour optional, see note, or oat flour
  • ¼ teeaspoon cinnamon optional
  • ¼-½ teapsoon vanilla optional
  • 1 cup dried fruit optional (blueberries, raisins, cranberries are favorites)

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
