The Best Homemade Granola Recipe Ever

THE BEST HOMEMADE GRANOLA EVER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C) and line two baking sheets with baking paper.
• Heat a saucepan over low heat and add in the maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine. Once coconut oil has melted, turn off the stove, and allow the mixture to cool off.
• In a bowl, combine the oats, nuts, seeds, and the liquid mixture. Toss well. Split the mixture between the two baking sheets, and spread it out evenly.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Quickly remove the sheets from the oven, flip/toss the granola, and bake for a further 8 minutes. Quickly remove again and sprinkle the coconut flakes on top, and bake for 7 more minutes.
• Remove from the oven, and allow the granola to cool completely. Mix with the dried fruit. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• In a microwave safe bowl, combine the sweetener and coconut oil and microwave for 90 seconds. Let the liquids cool then mix in the cinnamon and vanilla. Set aside.
• In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients, from the rolled oats to the sunflower seeds.
• Pour the liquid mixture over the oat mixture and stir until well combined.
• Spread the oat mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pan, stir the granola, spread it flat again and then bake it for another 10 minutes.
• Removed the granola from the oven and allow it to cool completely without stirring. Once cool, place the granola in an airtight container or ziplock bag and store in a dry, cool place.

THE BEST HOMEMADE GRANOLA RECIPE EVER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil and maple syrup.
• In a large bowl, stir together the oats and nuts, salt, and cinnamon (leave the dried fruit out for now).
• Pour the oil and maple syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to thoroughly coat.
• Spread granola onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spreading it thinly will result in a toastier taste, spreading it thickly will result in bigger clumps.
• Bake at 325F for 20 mins or until nuts smell toasted.
• Remove from oven and spread the dried fruit on top of granola and leave to cool.
• Break into pieces.
• Keep in an airtight container (I use a large Ziploc freezer bag).

Spread the mixture out evenly on the baking sheets.
