Provided by Abby Langer

Categories     Breakfast     Snack

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup neutral oil or coconut oil
1/2 cup maple syrup
4 cups large flake oats
2 cups nuts and seeds
1.5 cups dried fruit
pinch salt
generous sprinkle of cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the oil and maple syrup.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the oats and nuts, salt, and cinnamon (leave the dried fruit out for now).
  • Pour the oil and maple syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to thoroughly coat.
  • Spread granola onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spreading it thinly will result in a toastier taste, spreading it thickly will result in bigger clumps.

THE BEST GRANOLA



The Best Granola image

For our best granola, we wanted a crunchy, clustery version that wasn't too sweet. We created this simple but universally likeable recipe that's flavored with vanilla and a blend of brown sugar and maple syrup. We love its pure flavors and balance of salty and sweet. It is the perfect canvas for personalization, so we've included some ideas for mix-ins at the end of the recipe.
