Ingredients

• 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1.5 cups Raw walnuts, roughly chopped
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries or raisins (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped walnuts, and shredded coconut. Stir well to ensure an even mix.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until sugar is mostly dissolved.

Step 4

Pour the wet mixture over the oat mixture and stir thoroughly to coat everything evenly.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

Step 6

Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the sheet from the oven and stir the granola gently to ensure even browning.

Step 7

Return the granola to the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until it is golden brown and fragrant. Keep an eye on it during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.

Step 8

Remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.

Step 9

If using dried cranberries or raisins, stir them into the cooled granola.

Step 10

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. Serve with milk, yogurt, or enjoy as a snack on its own!
