Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup Maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup puff riced cereal
  • 1/2 cup cashews
  • 1/2 cup almonds chopped or slivered if desired
  • Pinch Sea Salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together the peanut butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.  Add the oats, rice cereal, cashews, almonds and pinch of salt to the bowl.  Fold the oats into the maple syrup mixture until everything is coated.
  • Pour oat 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 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway, then pressing the granola down again with the spatula.
  • Remove from oven and allow granola to cool.  The granola will harden more as it cools.
