Ingredients

3 cups old fashioned oats
¼ tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. chia seeds
1 tsp. cinnamon
½ cup natural peanut butter
⅓ cup honey
¼ cup melted coconut oil
1 tsp. vanilla

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together oats, salt, chia seeds, and cinnamon.
Stir in peanut butter, honey, coconut oil, and vanilla.
Once fully combined, press onto lined parchment paper - spread into flat layer.
Baked for 18-22 minutes or until starting to turn golden brown.
Let COMPLETELY cool before breaking apart.
Store in airtight container on the counter.

Notes

Use old fashioned rolled oats — not steel cut or quick oats. This is important for getting the right texture and those gorgeous chunky clusters. Other types of oats won't give you the same result.
Let it cool completely before breaking it apart. I know it's tempting to dig in right away, but the granola continues to crisp up as it cools. Break it apart once it's fully cooled for the best clusters!
Don't overbake, and watch your coconut oil measurement. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden — not longer. And stick to the ¼ cup of coconut oil called for; too much oil actually results in softer, less crunchy granola.
