Homemade Powerhouse Granola
Ingredients
- 5 Cups Organic Rolled Oats
- ¼ Cup Pure Maple Syrup
- ¼ Cup Raw Honey
- ⅔ Cup Slightly Softened Coconut Oil, Refined
- 1 ½ Tbsp Vanilla
- 1 Tbsp Ground Ceylon Cinnamon
- 1 Tsp Fine Sea Salt
- ¼ Cup Ground Flaxseed
- ¼ Cup Chia Seeds
Optional
- 2 Cups Nuts ( walnuts, almonds, whatever you prefer!)
- 1 Cup Seeds ( sunflower or pumpkin work great)
- 1 Cup Dried fruit ( like apple chips, raisins, dates, blueberries)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325° and place rack in center
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone sheet
- In large mixing bowl add dry ingredients, then wet ingredients. ( Do not add dried fruit. If using raw nuts or seeds, mix them in. If already roasted wait until after baking). Mix until incorporated. No need to break up chunks or clusters. I love clusters in my granola. You may need to add a little more oats, or coconut oil to get the consistency you prefer.
- Spread mixture onto baking sheet, creating more clusters if desired
- Place on center rack in preheated oven for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden brown
- Remove and mix in dried fruit and nuts/seeds ( if already roasted) once cooled if desired
- Store in air tight container in a dark and cool spot for up to two weeks
Notes
I love to eat my granola with goat milk or yogurt and sometimes a dollop of blueberry jam on top!
