In a bowl, toss together the oats, almonds and coconut, and set aside.

Combine the butter, 1 tbsp honey and the sugar in a small saucepan set over a medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until butter melts and sugar dissolves.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool on a rack.

Spread the hot dulce de leche over the granola and allow to cool completely.
