5-Minute Prep Homemade Granola

This Homemade Granola is the perfect breakfast topping! It's made with oats, nuts, dried fruits, maple syrup, and coconut oil. Prep only takes 5 minutes, and the whole recipe is done in about 30 minutes (you just have to let the granola cool down after). This granola is amazing used to top yogurt, on its own with milk, in smoothie bowls, on top of fruit, in trail mix, or on top of ice cream!
