Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper, be sure to allow it to fold up the sides a bit, you do not want the granola to fall to the botton tray of the air fryer
Preheat the air fryer to 280 degrees F (if you have a less powerful fryer you may want to try 300 degrees F
Add the oats to a large mixing bowl
Add the brown sugar
Add the cinnamon
Stir to mix all the dry ingredients
Keep the nuts seperate and the seeds seperate and reserve for later use
Add the coconut oil to the granola mixture
Add the 2 Tbsp of the honey reserving a half tbs for the second step
Add the date syrup/or maple if you are substituting
Stir all together
Add the granola mixture without the nuts or seeds to the air fryer basket
Air fry for 3-5 minutes (check your granola mix after 3 minutes if it is getting dark you stop cooking it and move to the next step )
Remove the air fryer basket stir and carefully and add the nuts and seeds
Drizzle a teaspoon of honey over the top, give it a little stir around
The nuts and seeds burn easily so adding them last ensures a great tasting granola
Return to the fryer for 2-3 minutes max
Spread out on a baking sheet to cool
Add to an air tight jar and keep in the panty for up to two weeks, or freeze up to 6 months.
