Amazing Homemade Granola Recipe<\/b><\/h3>\n

Yields 6 cups
\nServes 12<\/i><\/p>\n

Prep time: 5 minutes
\nCook time: 24 minutes<\/p>\n

[skinnybox]<\/p>\n

Ingredients <\/b><\/h3>\n

3 cups rolled oats
\n1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
\n1 cup nuts or seeds of your choice (a mix of sliced almonds and sunflower seeds is pictured above)
\n5 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
\n2\/3 cup pure maple syrup
\n1 teaspoon vanilla extract
\npinch of sea salt
\n1 cup dried fruit of your choice (a mix of gogi berries, blueberries and Incan berries is pictured above)<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/b><\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Preheat oven to 350\u00b0 F. In a large bowl, combine oats, coconut flakes, nuts or seeds, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and salt. Stir well until everything is evenly coated. Spread evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir the oat mixture. Return it back<\/a> to the oven for another 12 minutes. It should be golden brown, but keep an eye on it because it can go from perfect to burnt very quickly.<\/li>\n
  2. Remove from the oven and press the granola evenly with a spatula. Let cool and then add the dried fruit. Allow the granola to cool completely before storing in airtight containers. It can be stored at room temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
