Natural Coconut Granola: the Best Granola in the World
This scrumptious coconut granola will keep you satisfied and full of wholesome foods, even if you don't like coconut!
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 2 cups coconut flakes use large flakes, not shredded coconut
- 2 cups organic quick oats
- 2 cups nuts almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, etc. or seeds (pumpkin, pepita, pine nuts, etc.), chopped roughly - I like to use a combination
- 1/2 cup organic flaxseed
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 1 or 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves ginger or other spice of your choice
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup coconut sugar evaporated cane juice or honey, to taste - the amount of sweetener is up to you
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
- In large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and stir until well combined. Place parchment paper in a cookie or cake pan big enough for one layer of granola.
- Pour granola mixture into pan and spread evenly. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden. Stir granola or turn the pan halfway through cooking time.
- If you like it crunchier, let it cook to a darker color. Just keep checking & stirring until you get your perfect crunch!
