Mix the dry ingredients

Bake to golden perfection

Spread the mixture onto a lined baking sheet and bake at 300°F (150°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring halfway through. Keep a watchful eye to prevent any burnt surprises!

Cool and enjoy

Allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet, as it will become crispier as it cools. Once cooled, you can break it into delightful clusters or leave it as is. Store it in an airtight container and enjoy it with your favorite yogurt, milk, or as a standalone snack!
