Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.
