Easy Homemade Granola:

1. Heat an oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Heat the maple syrup with the coconut oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat, just to melt the oil.

3. While still warm, toss the maple syrup mixture together with the oats, almonds, sunflower seeds and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl.

4. Spray a baking sheet with the nonstick cooking spray. Spread the granola on the sheet tray in a thin layer. Bake for a total of 20 minutes, tossing the granola halfway through. Let cool to room temperature and store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. Yield: 1 cup.
