Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 5 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup coconut chips
  • 1 cup quinoa flakes
  • 1 cup wheat germ
  • 1 cup wheat bran
  • 1 cup flax seed meal
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup demerara sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup neutral oil
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, coconut, quinoa flakes, wheat germ, wheat bran, flax seed meal, and salt.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water, stirring until dissolved. Add the oil and vanilla.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry, stirring to combine. Spread the mixture into the prepared pan and press firmly.
  • Bake the granola for 30 minutes, watching for overbrowning on the edges. If it starts to get too brown on the edges, move the edges to the center with a spatula.
  • Allow to cool completely and then break into chunks.
  • Store in an airtight container. For longer shelf life, store the granola in the freezer.
