Equipment

  • Cookie Sheet Pan

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups gluten free rolled oats
  • 2 Cups pecans chopped
  • 1/4 Cup golden flaxseed meal
  • 1/4 Tsp salt
  • 1/2 Tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 Tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 Cup coconut oil liquid (melted to liquid)
  • 1/2 Cup maple syrup

Instructions

  • To start, preheat your oven to 275° Fahrenheit. Take your cookie sheet and line it with parchment paper and set aside.
  • To make your granola, mix together your oats, chopped pecans, flaxseed meal, salt, and cinnamon. If your coconut oil is solid, pop it in the microwave to liquefy it and pour it and the maple syrup and vanilla extract into your oat mixture. Once fully combined, spread out in a layer onto your parchment lined cookie sheet. Place it in your preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes (70 minutes).
  • When the timer is up, remove from the oven and allow to cool fully (usually 20-30 minutes). Then you can start breaking the granola up with your hands as it will be in huge pieces. Make sure it is fully cool before you store it away, and enjoy!
