Tools Needed
Baking Sheet Half Sheet Pan (use code MIMIBAKES for 10% off my favorite stainless steel sustainable bakeware!)
Parchment Paper (get my favorite nontoxic parchment paper and get 10% off with MIMIBAKES)
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, add the oats and coconut.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, add the coconut sugar, coconut oil, water, and honey. Cook on medium/high heat until everything is combined. Remove from heat and add in the sea salt. Stir to combine completely. Pour the sugar mixture over the oat mixture and fold to combine and completely coat the oats.
Step 4
Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread out as evenly as possible. Bake for 25 minutes, remove from the oven and stir to rotate granola. Bake again for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool completely on the baking sheet. (If you're baking at high altitude, be sure to check the Notes at the bottom of the recipe for high altitude baking instructions).
FAQ's
Of course, if you want to add nuts you can add in 4 ounces of any kind of nuts. I'd recommend almonds, walnuts, or pecans!
Yes! Homemade granola is incredibly easy to make at high altitude. All of my recipes are developed and tested for high altitude with just one simple adjustment to the baking time. Be sure to look at the Notes at the bottom of the recipe for the high altitude instructions if you are baking above 5,000 feet. And always be sure to check for visual signs your granola is done.
Homemade granola is best stored in an airtight container in your pantry. I like to store mine in a glass jar and it stays fresh for up to 1 month.
