- 1/4 cup (50 grams) raw sugar or granulated sugar (optional)
- 6 tablespoons (84 grams) unsalted butter or coconut oil (for vegan)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 °F (163 °C) and line a jelly roll pan (10″x15″ or 25cm x 38 cm) with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter or coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, almond or coconut extract, and salt. Add the oats and stir well.
