Yes, these flavors work well together.
3 cups of old fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 cup of oil (canola oil, vegetable oil, butter, or coconut oil, whatever you prefer--just make sure you melt the solid oils before blending)
1/2 cup apple juice (or water)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1 cup of dried cranberries
~Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
~Mix the oats, coconut, and salt together in a large bowl.
~Blend the oil, apple juice, vanilla, and brown sugar until emulsified and lighter in color.
~Combine oat and oil mixtures and mix well.
~Spread evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silpat lined cookie sheet
~Bake for 20 minutes, then stir.
~Stir every 10 minutes after the first time and remove from the oven when the granola is toasty and golden but still a little soft (it will get crispier as it cools).
~After removing it from the oven, let the granola cool on the cookie sheet until it reaches room temperature.
~Stir in 1 cup of dried cranberries (if you bake these, they will get hard and burnt and bitter)
~Store in a sealed container.
Serve this tasty granola over yogurt, under milk (or the milk substitute of your choice), or plain by the handful because you accidentally skipped a meal again and are ravenously hungry.
