Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (for easy cleanup). Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, toss all of your ingredients together with a spoon. Once everything is nice and coated, spread this out over your prepared baking sheet.
Pop this in the oven and bake about 30 minutes. Carefully open the oven and give your granola a little toss and then bake another 10 minutes.
Pull your granola out of the oven and allow it to cool completely before messing with it. It needs time to cool and really stick together before you store it/eat it/etc.
Once your granola is cool (about 30 minutes or more), store it in a container or large gallon-sized baggie in the pantry up to two weeks.

Notes

We use gluten-free granola to keep this recipe gf for our family.
