4 Ingredient Coconut Almond Pecan Paleo Granola (V, GF): a quick ‘n easy recipe for crunchy, salty & sweet granola packed with whole ingredients. Paleo, Vegan, Healthy, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Refined Sugar-Free.
Servings: 12 -14 ¼ cup-servings (3 ½ cups)
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- ¾ cup almonds roughly chopped*
- ¾ cup pecans roughly chopped*
- 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 for later.
- Add coconut, almonds, pecans 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 onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread granola 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 5-10 minutes. Mine took a total of 20 minutes.
- Place baking sheet on a cooling rack. Allow to cool for about 30 minutes, or until completely cooled. Enjoy! Storing instructions below.
Notes
- Adapted from my 5 Ingredient Homemade KIND Nut Bars.
- *I like to leave some nuts completely whole--this results in bigger, tastier clusters.
