How to Make Cashew Almond Coconut Granola

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups rolled oats, 1 cup cashews (chopped), 1 cup almonds (chopped), 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, and ½ cup packed light brown sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup maple syrup, ¼ cup melted coconut oil, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until evenly combined. The mixture will be slightly wet.
  5. Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 60-75 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on it after 60 minutes to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets. This allows it to crisp up further.
  8. Once completely cool, transfer the granola to a large bowl. Add 1 cup chopped dates (or your preferred dried fruit) and stir gently to combine.
  9. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
