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.
