Ingredients

  • 3 c. Gluten-free old fashioned oats
  • 1 c. Unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/3 c. Organic raw sunflower seeds
  • 1/3 c. Organic flaxmeal
  • 1/3 c. Chia seeds
  • 1/3 c. Organic coconut sugar or maple sugar
  • 1-2 T. Organic ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 c. Organic butter or coconut oil
  • 3 T. Pure maple syrup
  • 2 T. Water
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°.  Prepare a large baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.  (I like to use a 10.5" x 15" baking sheet.)

  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the dry ingredients.  Pour your dry ingredients onto the parchment paper.

  3. In a small saucepan, melt your butter OR coconut oil.  Remove from the heat and add your maple syrup and water.  Pour evenly over dry ingredients.

  4. Bake for 15 minutes.  Stir granola.  Bake for additional 15-20 minutes.  Stir granola.

    If your granola is beginning to brown and clump together, remove from the oven.  Otherwise bake for another 5-8 minutes.  The granola will begin to look darker with less moisture.

  5. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.  Stir one time and then continue to cool.  As the granola cools, it will begin to clump together and harden.
