Ingredients

Display units in Metric

¹⁄₂	cup	coconut oil
¹⁄₂	cup	maple syrup
3	cups	whole oats
1	tsp	vanilla extract
2	cups	puffed quinoa {or just more oats}
1	tsp	cinnamon or 2 drops doterra cinnamon oil
¹⁄₂	cup	shredded coconut
¹⁄₂	cup	almonds
¹⁄₂	cup	hemp seeds
¹⁄₂	cup	pumpkin seeds
¹⁄₄	cup	chia seeds
¹⁄₄	cup	choco chips or dried fruit (added near the end of cooking time)

Melt the liquids together on low in the crockpot first.

Then add all other ingredients except for dried fruit/choco chips. You will want to stir these optional items in about 20 min before turning crockpot off.

Cook for about 4hrs on low with the lid cracked to allow a little of the heat to escape. You do need to stir it from time to time to break up the large chunks.

After granola is finished, store in glass mason jars in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

To make Granola Bars:

Take 2 cups of this granola, mix in 2 eggs and bake for 20 min at 350. (I usually add in a few scoop of protein powder or collagen + chocolate chips at this point and not while making granola)
