Ingredients

    *2 cups rolled oats
    *1 1/4 cups sliced almonds
    *3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
    *1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
    *1/4 cup maple syrup
    *2 tablespoons agave nectar
    *2 tablespoons safflower oil, plus more for baking sheet
    *1 cup dried fruit (I chose cranberries)

Directions

Preheat oven to 300 F.

Arrange the oats on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring occasionally, until lightly toasted, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the almonds, coconut, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, agave nectar, and oil.

Stir the toasted oats into the almond mixture. Add the syrup mixture, stirring to thoroughly combine.

Grease the baking sheet. Spread the granola evenly on the sheet and bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes (the mixture will still look and feel wet). Stir in the dried fruit, then cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container.
