Instructions

Preheat your oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, sliced almonds, coconut flakes, ground flaxseed, hemp hearts, and kosher salt.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter (or avocado oil), maple syrup, and brown sugar over medium heat, whisking until the sugar is dissolved; then remove from heat.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until completely combined and everything is coated.
Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes, stirring twice during baking.
Once baked, remove from oven and toss well. Allow the granola to cool for 15 minutes.
