Ingredients

  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup macadamia nut
  • ½ cup cashews
  • ½ cup pecans
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 TB coconut sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 TB maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup virgin coconut oil Melt the coconut oil before adding.
  • 1 TB vanilla
  • 1 TB molasses

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (oats, nuts, coconut, cinnamon, coconut sugar and salt).
  • Add wet ingredients to the dry bowl mix (maple syrup, vanilla, coconut oil and molasses).
  • Stir the ingredients together until combined and then put the granola on 2 baking sheet pans.
  • Cook for 15-25 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to make sure it’s cooked consistently and doesn’t burn.
  • Remove granola from the oven and transfer into a large glass bowl.
  • Enjoy the granola for breakfast, as a snack or it makes a great topping!

Notes

Optional Toppings: 1 cup dried fruit, cacao nibs or dark chocolate chips. Add toppings when granola is cooled.
I like to use Silpats when baking. The granola doesn't stick to the pan and it cleans up easily.
