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.
