Viceroy Hotel Granola

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup walnuts and almonds roughly chopped
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar packed (tightly )
• 0.3 cup coconut oil (I used the cheap kind this time, not extra virgin)
• 0.3 cup maple syrup 
• 2 cups minus 2 tablespoons oats 
• 0.5 cup lightly peanuts salted chopped
• 1 pinch salt 
• 0.5 cup coconut or shredded unsweetened
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract 

Equipment

• baking sheet
• oven
• aluminum foil
• microwave

Directions

1. Combine oats, peanuts, nuts, coconut, brown sugar, and salt.
2. Mix the maple syrup and coconut oil in a microwave-safe cup and microwave for about 30 seconds or until coconut oil is melted.
3. Add the vanilla and pour over the dry ingredients.
4. Spread it all on a large, nonstick foil lined baking sheet and bake at 250F for about an hour. For a lighter colored granola, cover loosely with foil for the first 45 minutes, then remove foil and bake uncovered for the last 15 to 20.Granola will crisp as it cools.
5. Let cool, leave in large chunks in airtight container.
6. Mix with dry fruit before serving (I didn’t)
