Delicious Maple Granola Recipe - Easy & Healthy

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup nuts (almonds or walnuts), chopped
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup dried fruit (raisins or cranberries)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup seeds (pumpkin or sunflower), optional
  • 1 cup coconut flakes, unsweetened
  • 1 cup maple sugar, optional

Instructions

8 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated to achieve even cooking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine oats, chopped nuts, salt, and cinnamon.

    Mixing dry ingredients first helps distribute flavors evenly.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.

    Whisk until fully combined for a smooth mixture.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until all oats are coated.

    Ensure no dry oats are left for consistent flavor.
  5. Spread on Baking Sheet

    Spread the granola mixture evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    A thin, even layer will help it bake evenly.
  6. Bake

    Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even browning.

    Watch closely to prevent burning; granola should be golden.
  7. Cool and Add Extras

    Allow the granola to cool completely, then mix in dried fruits and seeds if using.

    Cooling helps granola to clump together.
  8. Store

    Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.

    Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
