Coconut Chai Granola

Ingredients

• 4 cups of rolled oats
• 1.5 cups of walnuts (or nuts of choice)
• 2/3 cup of dried cranberries (or dried fruit of choice)
• 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
• 1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
• 1 heaping tbsp of chai spice*
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt

 

Chai spice mixture:

• 1/2 tbsp cardamom
• 1/2 tbsp allspice
• 1/2 tbsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tbsp clove
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp ginger

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Prepare the chai spice mix by mixing all of the chai spice ingredients together in a small bowl or sealable jar.
3. Prepare the dry ingredients for the granola by mixing the oats, nuts, salt, shredded coconut, and 1 heaping tablespoon of the chai spice, together in a large bowl. You have the option of adding in the dried fruit now, or after the granola is finished cooling.
4. In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients: coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients. Lay onto a baking sheet, and spread out evenly.
6. Bake the granola for about 20-22 minutes, stirring halfway.
7. Let the granola cool completely before eating. Enjoy with milk, on top of smoothies, or as a snack.
