Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Place the almond butter, maple syrup and coconut oil in a medium microwave safe bowl and heat for 25-40 seconds or until the coconut oil is melted and it's easy to stir. Stir well to combine, then stir in the cinnamon and salt.

Add the oats and stir until they're well coated with the almond butter mixture.

Pour the oats onto the prepared pan and spread in an even layer, about 1/4" thick, packing it down well. Packing it down will help give us those big clusters!

Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden….do not stir! Remove from heat and cool completely without stirring.

Once cooled, break the granola up into chunks and place in an air tight container at room temperature.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Your Oats First 🌾
Spread oats on a baking sheet and toast at 300°F for 5-7 minutes before mixing with wet ingredients to deepen their nutty flavor and ensure crispier clusters.
Warm Your Almond Butter 🥜
Gently warm the almond butter before mixing to improve its spreadability and help it distribute evenly throughout the oats for consistent flavor in every bite.
Master the Cluster Break 🧩
Break apart clusters with a wooden spoon only after they've completely cooled (at least 15 minutes), as premature breaking will result in fine crumbs instead of satisfying chunks.
Control Moisture for Crunch 💧
Use refined coconut oil rather than virgin to prevent excess moisture and achieve maximum crispness, as virgin varieties can add unwanted coconut flavor that competes with the almond butter.
Cool on the Pan Strategically 🍳
Leave granola on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes after removing from the oven before transferring to storage, allowing residual heat to finish crisping the clusters perfectly.
