Heat the oven to 300° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the dry ingredients - oats, almond flour, salt, and cinnamon, until well mixed. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, mix together the almond butter, maple syrup, and coconut oil. Keep stirring until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
Pour the almond butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix well to coat everything.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the lined baking sheet and press it down firmly.
Bake for 25- 30 minutes, flipping the mixture at about the halfway mark. Bake until golden brown - keeping an eye on it in the final minutes, so it doesn't burn.
Remove from the oven and press down firmly on the hot mixture with a flat spatula.
Let it cool on the baking sheet for 15-20 before breaking it into clusters.

Storage tips
Store the granola in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. It is best to keep it in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. A pantry or cupboard is an ideal spot.
Avoid storing granola near the stove or oven, as the heat and moisture can cause it to lose its crunchiness.
