- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 3/4 cup shredded coconut unsweetened
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
- 1-1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, almonds, coconut, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa powder, honey, melted coconut oil, cinnamon, and salt. Combine the two mixtures and stir until the dry ingredients are thoroughly moistened.
Spread the granola mixture out on one or two large, flat baking sheets with raised edges. Bake the granola for 45-60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. The granola is done when it is dry and the almonds and coconut pieces are lightly browned.
Cool completely in the pan before transferring to a storage container. This granola will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for several weeks.
