Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups (368 grams) rolled oats
- 1/4 cup (50 grams) raw sugar or granulated sugar (optional)
- 6 tablespoons (84 grams) unsalted butter or coconut oil (for vegan)
- 6 tablespoons (120 grams) honey or maple syrup (for vegan)
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons almond or coconut extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 °F (163 °C) and line a jelly roll pan (10″x15″ or 25cm x 38 cm) with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter or coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, almond or coconut extract, and salt. Stir in the oats.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it into an even layer, ensuring no granola pieces are off to the side.
- Bake for 12-16 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through until the edges start to brown. Stir the granola and bake for another 5-10 minutes until uniformly lightly browned.
- Let the granola cool completely on the pan for about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 weeks.
Notes
For a vegan option, substitute unsalted butter with coconut oil and honey with maple syrup.
Feel free to customize with nuts or dried fruits after baking for added flavor.
Store the granola in an airtight container for maximum freshness.
