- 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Notes
- Make Ahead & Freezing Instructions: Granola is one of the best recipes to make ahead because it stays fresh for so long. Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 month. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature.
- Oats: If needed, you can substitute certified gluten free old-fashioned whole rolled oats.
