Fig and Walnut Granola

Ingredients

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon

Coconut oil

1/4 cup, melted

Honey

1/3 cup

Dried figs

1 cup, chopped

Walnuts

1 cup, chopped

Rolled oats

3 cups

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the granola from sticking.
2. Combine the rolled oats, chopped walnuts, and chopped dried figs in a large bowl.
3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey, melted coconut oil, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. This will be your granola coating.
4. Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture. Stir until the oats, walnuts, and figs are well coated with the honey mixture.
5. Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the lined baking sheet.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting. The granola should be golden brown and crispy.
7. Remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will continue to harden as it cools.
8. Once cooled, transfer the granola to an airtight container for storage. The granola can be stored for up to 2 weeks.
9. Serve this delicious granola with your choice of yogurt, milk, or enjoy it as a crunchy snack on its own.
