This low sodium granola recipe is a sweet and satisfying addition to your breakfast! Add over yogurt, fruit, or top oatmeal. An healthy take on a breakfast favorite: this granola recipe has no added salt or sugar, & is high in fiber. Made with oats, nuts, maple syrup, and spices.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, stir together the the oats, coconut flakes, walnuts, and sliced/chopped almonds. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined. Add the liquid mixture to the bowl with the oats. Fold together until the maple syrup mixture has coated every oat, coconut flake, and nut.
Pour granola mixture onto the parchment paper, and using a spatula spread it out evenly over the paper and press down with the spatula. The harder you press the oats down, the chunkier the granola will be.
Bake granola for 18 minutes, then remove from oven, turn the pan around, and bake for another 5. Do not stir or flip the granola.
Remove from oven and allow granola to fully cool. The granola will harden more as it cools, and will form thick chunks. Add to cereal, yogurt bowls, or parfaits.
