Description

From the pages of my maple syrup cookbook, here’s a simple Maple Granola made with only a few pantry staples. The rich maple flavor shines through with just a few handfuls of nuts and dried fruit to augment it. It couldn’t be more easy to make, because it takes 5 minutes to stir together and get into the oven.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 cups rolled oats old fashioned
  • 1 cup pure maple syrup, dark or amber
  • 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds or other nut
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil, avocado oil or organic canola oil
  • generous pinch coarse kosher salt
  • 1 cup raisins, dried cranberries or another dried fruit

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Mix oats, syrup, nuts, canola oil and salt in a large mixing bowl. Spread mixture out over the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake 30 minutes.
  4. Stir gently and return to the oven for 10 more minutes of baking.
  5. Cool on the baking sheet. Stir in cranberries or dried fruit.

Notes

Storage: Store in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 4 weeks.
