How to Make Peanut Butter Granola

In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, peanut butter, honey, brown sugar, and salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
In a separate saucepan over low heat, melt together the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Stir until smooth.
Pour the melted mixture over the oat mixture and stir until evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Once cooked, spread the granola in a thin layer onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Allow the granola to cool completely. This will take approximately 1 hour. Once cooled, break into chunks.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
