Description
Oil-Free Paleo Cinnamon Nut Granola (V, GF): Crispy, crunchy homemade paleo granola perfectly spiced with warm, cozy cinnamon. Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy-Free, Paleo, Healthy, Snacks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- ½ cup almonds, roughly chopped*
- ½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped*
- ½ cup pecans, roughly chopped*
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
- Add coconut, almonds, walnuts, pecans, cinnamon and salt (if using) to a large bowl. Stir until well mixed.
- Add maple syrup. Stir and fold until coconut and nuts are fully coated.
- Pour granola onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread into an even layer, with empty pockets at regular intervals to let air through. Using a spoon, create small piles of granola—these will become clusters after baking.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Using a heatproof spatula, flip granola to evenly crisp the other side. Bake for an additional 5-12 minutes. Mine took a total of 20 minutes.
- Place baking sheet on a cooling rack. Allow to cool for about 30 minutes. Storing instructions below. Enjoy!
Notes
– Adapted from my Paleo Coconut Pecan Granola and my 5 Ingredient Homemade KIND Nut Bars.
-* I like to leave some nuts whole so I have bigger, tastier clusters at the end.
– Here’s the unsweetened coconut flakes that I use in this recipe.
– Storage notes: Store in an airtight container for 1-2 months at room temperature, in a cool, dark environment.
