Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Coconut Almond Granola.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare two rimmed baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, gather your rolled oats, crunchy almonds, and shredded coconut.
Step 3
Drizzle in some maple syrup and melted coconut oil, then add an egg white for binding.
Step 4
Sprinkle in chia seeds, a dash of cinnamon, a hint of cardamom, and a pinch of kosher salt.
Step 5
Now, get your hands in there or grab a wooden spoon and mix everything together until every ingredient is beautifully coated.
Step 6
Once your mixture is ready, spread it evenly across the prepared baking sheets, making sure it’s nice and flat.
Step 7
Pop the sheets into your preheated oven and let them bake for about 40 minutes.
Step 8
Halfway through, give the granola a good stir and rotate the baking sheets to ensure everything bakes evenly and turns a lovely golden brown.
Step 9
When it’s done, take it out of the oven and let it cool completely—this is the hardest part, but trust me, it’s worth the wait! Once cooled, store your delicious granola in lidded containers or jars at room temperature, where it will stay fresh for up to two weeks.
Step 10
Enjoy it with a splash of milk, a dollop of yogurt, or toss in some fresh fruit like berries, peaches, mango, or pineapple for a delightful breakfast or snack.
Step 11
This homemade granola is not just a treat; it’s a warm hug in a bowl!.
