Description
This Coconut Pecan Granola is a flavorful, crunchy, and just lightly sweetened with maple syrup. This gluten-free vegan granola only has 9 ingredients and it’s perfect for stirring into your yogurt, serving with milk or eating on its own as a snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2½ cups gluten-free rolled oats
- 1½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
- 1½ teaspoons cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300ºF. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking liner.
- In a large bowl, combine oats, coconut flakes and pecans. In a smaller bowl or liquid measuring up, mix together remaining ingredients and stir until fully incorporated. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir together until the dry ingredients are completely coated.
- Pour mixture onto prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Bake for 45-55 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through to ensure even cooking. Remove from oven and allow to cool entirely (I like to press mine down a bit right when it gets out of the oven so I get chunky granola, depends on your preference).
- When it’s fully cooled, transfer to an airtight container to store for up to a month, if it lasts that long! Will last even longer in the refrigerator or freezer.
