10-Minute Vegan Cinnamon Almond Granola
This quick and easy vegan granola requires just 6 ingredients and about 10 minutes of your time. Almonds and rolled oats are tossed with a drizzle of maple syrup, pat of melted coconut oil, sprinkle of cinnamon, and pinch of sea salt. The mixture is spread into a single layer in a lined pan and baked for 8 minutes, or until crisp and golden. The result is a granola that's crisp, subtly sweet, and totally snack-worthy. Sprinkle it over coconut yogurt with a drizzle of pure maple syrup or enjoy it straight from the jar.
Ingredients
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon virgin coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ to ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a small baking tray with parchment paper.
- Meanwhile, add all ingredients to a medium mixing bowl and toss, ensuring every last bit is thoroughly coated.
- Spread the mixture into an even layer in the lined tray.
- Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, or until wafting a rich toasted scent and the almonds have just the slightest sheen to them. (Go by time and scent rather than touch—the granola won't feel crisp to the touch or set until after it's cooled.)
- Cool completely on the tray.
- Serve with a splash of almond milk or sprinkle over a bowl of coconut yogurt.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight glass jar.
