| 3 cup | Oats, large flakes, dry |
| 1/2 cup | Coconut oil (melted) |
| 1/2 cup | Maple syrup |
| 1/4 tsp | Himalayan sea salt |
| 1 tsp | Vanilla extract, pure (optional) |
| 1/2 tsp | Cinnamon (optional) |
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together oats, salt, and cinnamon.
3. Stir in melted coconut oil and maple syrup until all the oats are coated.
4. Spread the mixture evenly on the prepare baking sheet.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. For chunkier granola, press the mixture down slightly before baking and at the halfway point avoid stirring too much.

7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
