- Dump granola on the tray and flatten into an even layer. Do not press down firmly and leave air space as much as possible.

Notes
*Use old-fashioned rolled oats, not quick cook or steel cut.
*Always use raw cashews and untoasted coconut or they will over cook and become bitter during the baking process.
