Notes

If you have celiac disease or are sensitive to gluten, make sure the oats are certified gluten-free to avoid cross contamination.
To get better clumps, make sure to press down on the oats before baking. You can still flip it halfway through and press it down afterwards to ensure clump formation.
After baking, let the granola rest in the oven while its off, this will help achieve a crunchy granola.
