- 3 cups oats
- ½ cup ground flax
- ½ cup sliced almonds or other chopped nut
- ½ cup coconut flakes
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 egg white
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 275℉.

- Add the rolled oats, ground flax, almonds, coconut, cinnamon, and salt to a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Then add the oil, maple syrup, and egg whites and use a rubber spatula to thoroughly mix so everything is evenly coated.3 cups oats, ½ cup ground flax, ½ cup sliced almonds, ½ cup coconut flakes, 1 teaspoon fine salt, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, ½ cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons coconut oil, 1 egg white
- Turn the mixture out onto a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment or a silicone mat. Use the spatula to spread it in an even layer, and then press down on it to compact the ingredients.
- Bake the granola for about 60 minutes, rotating the pan after the first 30 minutes so it browns evenly. Don’t stir it!
- Take the granola out of the oven and let it cool completely before breaking it into clusters with your hands. Transfer to an airtight container.
