Steps

1Preheat the oven to 275ºF.
2In a large bowl, toss together the oats, coconut flakes, almonds, seeds, and salt. Pour in the maple syrup and oil. Stir to coat.
3Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the oat mixture out on it. Place it in the oven and bake for 45 minutes to hour, or until the edges look slightly dark. Note: As soon as you start smelling it, start checking it. This may take you 30 minutes; it may take you an hour and 15 minutes depending on your oven and baking pan. Really try to use the visual cues: lightly golden throughout with slightly darker edges.
4Do not stir: As in: Do not stir during the cooking process or when it comes out of the oven.
5Let the mixture cool completely on sheet pan. When ready to store, lift up edges of parchment to loosen the granola — this will create nice big shards. Transfer shards to storage container. Pour in remaining granola — it will inevitably break into smaller pieces.
