Add 3 cups of oats, 1 cup of almonds, and 1/2 cup of coconut flakes to a large bowl, mix, and set aside.
Combine 1/4 cup coconut oil and 1/4 cup honey in a microwaveable dish or measuring cup. Microwave for 15-30 seconds to melt the oil. Add 1/4 cup maple syrup and 1/2 tsp salt to the measuring cup, and stir to combine the ingredients. You can microwave for an additional 15 seconds to better combine the ingredients if desired.
Drizzle the warm oil mixture over the dry oat mixture using a rubber spatula to combine. Once all is coated evenly, spread the granola mixture on the reserved baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking, until just golden.
Cool the granola completely before carefully breaking it apart with your hands. Store granola in an airtight container for up to 4 weeks, or freeze for 3 months.
