Ingredients:
- 3 cups (240g) rolled oats (old-fashioned, not instant)
- 1 cup (100g) mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans), roughly chopped
- ½ cup (40g) unsweetened shredded coconut
- ¼ cup (30g) seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, or a mix)
- ¼ cup (60ml) honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- ¼ cup (60ml) coconut oil, melted (or other neutral oil)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
- Preheat air fryer to 300°F (150°C). Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, seeds, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir well until everything is evenly coated.
- Spread the granola mixture in an even layer in the prepared air fryer basket.
- Air fry for 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to ensure even browning and prevent burning. Keep a close eye – every air fryer is different! Look for a golden brown color and toasted aroma.
- Remove the granola from the air fryer and let it cool completely on a baking sheet or in the bowl. It will crisp up as it cools.
- Once cooled, store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
