Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and chopped almonds. Stir to distribute evenly.
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the honey and melted coconut oil until combined and slightly runny.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until fully blended.
Pour the honey mixture over the oats and almonds, stirring thoroughly until the dry ingredients are well coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking, until the granola is golden brown and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet. It will become crisp as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries and coconut flakes.
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
