Description
A toaster-oven-sized recipe filled with golden oats, sliced almonds and toasted coconut.
Ingredients
- 1-¼ cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 3 Tablespoons Wheat Germ (substitute Wheat Bran, Flax Meal Or Chia Seeds)
- ¼ cups Sliced Almonds
- ¼ cups Unsweetened Flaked Coconut
- ⅛ teaspoons Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Melted Coconut Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
- ¼ teaspoons Almond Extract
Preparation
Preheat toaster oven or oven to 325ºF and lightly oil a 10 x 7 pan.
In a medium bowl, mix together oats, wheat germ, almonds, coconut and salt.
In a small bowl whisk together coconut oil, maple syrup and almond extract. Pour maple oil mixture over oat mixture and stir well, coating all of the ingredients well.
Pour granola into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer, pressing the granola down with a rubber spatula. Bake granola for 19–22 minutes, until golden brown. Stir granola after 15 minutes, stirring from the edges of the pan inward. Keep a close eye on it during the last few minutes to make sure granola does not burn.
Cool granola completely (about 30 minutes) without stirring before storing in a sealed jar.
Note: Total time does not include 30-minute recommended cooling time.
