Ingredients
2 cups whole rolled oats
½ cup chopped walnuts
½ cup coconut flakes
2 tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp. sea salt
2 Tbsp. melted coconut oil
¼ cup maple syrup
2 Tbsp. creamy almond butter
⅓ cup dried cranberries
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the oats, walnuts, coconut flakes, cinnamon, and salt. Drizzle in the coconut oil and maple syrup, and add the almond butter. Stir until combined.
Step 3
Scoop the granola onto the baking sheet and press the mixture down to about 1-inch thickness. This will encourage clumping.
Step 4
Bake for 15 minutes then rotate the pan halfway. Use a fork to gently break some of the granola apart. Bake for 15 minutes more, or until golden brown. Sprinkle with dried cranberries. Let it cool before serving.
