Equipment

Ingredients

3 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/3 cup coconut oil
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup chocolate chips or pieces You can add an entire cup if you'd like more sweet

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
Line a large baking tray with a silicone mat or parchment and set aside.
Combine the oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon, coconut, and sliced almonds in a medium bowl and set aside.
Add the coconut oil and honey to a small saucepan.
Heat over low/medium heat until warmed and the oil is completely liquidated, roughly 2 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
Pour the oil mixture over the oats and stir to combine.
Spread into an even layer onto the prepared sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes, gently stirring once halfway through.
Granola is done when golden brown and fragrant.
Sprinkle with chocolate and serve or store.

Notes

I do suggest taste testing as you go. I put about 1/4 cup of sugar and honey but my husband likes it with a little less (around 2-3 tablespoons).
