Gently warm 0.33 cup maple syrup with 0.5 cup peanut butter, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.5 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.

Pour the combined wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir to fully coat.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and spread the granola mixture in a thin, even layer.

Bake the granola at 350°F for 10 minutes.

Remove from the oven and stir the mixture to ensure even browning, then pat it back down into a compact thin layer.

Bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden and fragrant.

Let the granola cool completely before touching it to ensure it forms clusters.
