Ingredients

4 cups rolled oats
1 cup pecans roughly chopped
½ cup coconut oil
½ cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 175℃ (325℉).
Melt the coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla in a large saucepan.

Pour the granola onto a lined cookie sheet. Spread it as thinly as possible to create yummy clusters.
Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown and crispy.

Notes

Make a double batch of maple pecan granola to keep in your freezer. I love doing this, so I have lots of granola. If you're already making a mess, why not make a bigger batch?
Do not stir the granola while it's baking. Allow it to bake undisturbed so it forms yummy clusters.
Add more nuts or seeds as you desire. Pumpkin seeds would be great in this!
