Salted Caramel Granola

Six Ingredient Salted Caramel Granola

Pressing the granola down after baking and allowing it to cool completely helps it to form clusters. I didn't add any dried fruit to this recipe, but I think chopped dried apples would be especially nice. Or, take it in another direction with mini chocolate chips.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup slivered almonds
  • 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
  • 1 heaping teaspoon flaky sea salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the oats, almonds, coconut, and salt.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the oil and caramel sauce, whisking, until smooth. Pour the sauce over the oat mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until well combined. Spread the granola on the prepared baking sheet and bake, stirring every 15 minutes, for 1 hour.
  3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, press the granola down firmly into a compact, single layer. Allow it to cool completely. Break the granola into chunks and transfer to an airtight container. The granola will keep for about 1 month.
