📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 325ºF (160ºC) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Add the quick oats, almonds, chia seeds, rice flour, and salt to a very large bowl and mix well.

3
Add the coconut oil, honey, and brown sugar to a small saucepan. Heat over low-medium heat, stirring constantly, until all of the ingredients come together into a smooth consistency and the brown sugar has dissolved.
4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

5
Pour the honey mixture on top of the oat mixture, and use a silicone spatula to fold it in until everything has been coated in the honey and oil mixture.
6
Transfer the granola to a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread it out into an even layer.
7
Bake in the oven for ⏱️ 25-30 minutes, stirring the granola 2-3 times during cooking (but do not stir during the last ⏱️ 8 minutes of baking), or until the edges appear lightly toasted.
8
Remove from the heat and do not stir. Allow to cool for about ⏱️ 1-2 hours before stirring. At first, the granola will appear “wet”, but as it cools, you will see that it dries out.
9
After ⏱️ 1-2 hours, stir the granola to break up very large chunks (we like to leave some in for texture), then allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet (another hour or so).
10
Once the granola is completely cooled to room temperature and no longer moist, transfer to a large glass jar or an airtight container. Leave the lid off for ⏱️ 30-60 minutes to allow any remaining warmth or moisture to escape.
11
Cover tightly and store at room temperature for 1-3 weeks. If the granola feels moist or sticks together, your storage time will be limited, as it has not dried enough. Use it immediately, or store in the freezer until ready to use.
