Gluten Free Apple Cherry Cranberry Coconut Pecan Granola Muffin Recipes

COCONUT PECAN GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Place pecans and walnuts in a ziploc bag and crush with a mallet or rolling pin.
• In a large mixing bowl mix together oatmeal, coconut flakes, crushed pecans and walnuts, and raisins.
• In a smaller bowl stir together coconut oil, honey, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.
• Pour the honey mixture over the oatmeal mixture and stir until coated well.
• Spread granola onto a large sheet pan and place in the preheated oven.
• Bake for 30 mins stirring every 10 so the granola doesn't burn.
• Cool on sheet pan then store in an airtight contain for up to one month.
• Note: When you remove the granola from the oven it will be brown but not crisp. It will crisp up as it cools. I stir every 15 mins while cooling because it starts sticking together.
