Place the completely cooled granola into an airtight container like a mason jar. Store it at room temperature for up to 10 days.

Tips + Modifications:

Feel free to switch up the nuts. You can use all almonds, for example, or switch over to walnuts. You can even take the nuts out, but I highly recommend them.

If you do not like the taste of coconut oil, feel free to substitute it with vegetable oil.
