Ingredients
Scale
1/3 cup honey (125g)
1 Tbsp coconut oil melted (14g)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract (6g)
1/4 tsp salt, to taste (1.5g)
1 1/2 cups rolled oats (155g)
1/2 cup almonds (82g), roughly chopped
1 cup (34g / 1.2 oz) freeze-dried strawberries and bananas combo (or 1/2 cup each if separate)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 320ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt together.
- Add the oats and almonds and mix well.
- Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet and press it down, keeping it all together but flattening it out into about a 1/4-1/2 inch thick layer, making sure the layer is even and the edges aren’t thinner than the middle. It helps to use a slightly wet spatula as it prevents sticking.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown. It’s normal if the edges are super golden while the middle isn’t, it’ll all still become crunchy after fully cooling down. Remove from the oven, keeping in mind the granola won’t be crunchy yet.
- Let it cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. It will harden and crisp up during this time, so don’t worry if it’s not crispy yet.
- After fully cooled and hardened, break it up into clusters.
- Toss with the freeze-dried strawberries and bananas.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature in a dark, cool pantry for up to 2 weeks.
