Maple Coconut Granola

A delicious and healthy coconut granola with a touch of maple.

Granola is a tried and true family favorite in our house. It seems like every time I turn around there is a hand reaching into the granola jar. We love enjoying it for breakfast, as a snack, over yogurt, with fruit, or with a splash of almond milk. There is truly no "wrong" way to eat granola.

Trust me, once you try homemade granola, you won’t go back to store-bought granola. It’s so much better!

WHAT INGREDIENTS DO I NEED?

• 2 cups oats
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
• ½ cup whole pecans
• ½ cup whole almonds
• ¼ cup coconut oil 
• ½ cup maple syrup
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• dash salt

Our family infatuation with granola is why I love coming up with new variations! At the end of this post you will find many of my popular granola recipes, but this Maple Coconut Granola is my new obsession. It is delicious, naturally sweetened with maple syrup, and perfectly toasted with nuts & coconut flakes. 

HOW DO I MAKE MAPLE COCONUT GRANOLA?

To create it, simply combine the following dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl:

• 2 cups oats
• 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
• ½ cup whole pecans
• ½ cup whole almonds
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon
• dash salt

Next, melt approximately ¼ cup of coconut oil.

Stir in coconut oil and ½ cup of maple syrup to the dry ingredients. Make sure to mix well, so everything gets coated.

Bake at 300 degrees F for 30 minutes. Stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. The granola will become more crunchy as it cools.

This Maple Coconut Granola is a super easy recipe. It isn't overly sweet, but is always a real crowd-pleaser.
