Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl combine oats, almonds, coconut, salt, cinnamon, and coconut sugar. Stir to combine.
  • In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, melt your coconut oil. Let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Add maple syrup and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined. Add almond butter to dry ingredients in large bowl, then pour in liquid mixture. Stir with a large spoon until the oat mixture is completely coated.
  • Transfer mixture to prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Using an extra piece of parchment paper, press down oat mixture into an even, packed layer. 
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes, stirring halfway through bake time and carefully flattening back into an even layer with your piece of parchment (wear an oven mitt). Granola is done when it starts to turn golden.
  • When finished baking, remove from oven and allow granola to cool completely on a wire rack before breaking it into pieces and placing in an airtight container. This will ensure there are clumps!

Notes

Packing the granola mixture down will help ensure crunchy clumps once the granola has cooled.
