How To Make Homemade Granola

Not only is it healthy, granola is the perfect breakfast food when you want a recipe that’s easy and simple to whip up. Pair your granola with yogurt or snack on them like you would regular cereals to give yourself the breakfast of champions.

Preparation: 10 minutes

Cooking: 25 minutes

Total: 35 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

3 cups rolled oats
1 cup nuts, chopped (such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts)
1/2 cup seeds (such as pumpkin or sunflower seeds)
1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup dried fruit (such as raisins, cranberries, or apricots)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, nuts, seeds, honey or maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking.
Remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will become crunchier as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried fruit.
Store the homemade granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
