Hazelnut Pistachio Granola With Dried Cherries And Candied Ginger Recipes

ROASTED HAZELNUT GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• To make the granola, toss the hazelnuts, cashews, oatmeal, almonds, coconut, oil, and honey together in a large bowl until they are completely combined. Pour onto a sheet pan and bake, stirring occasionally with a metal spatula, until the mixture turns an even golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the granola from the oven, scrape the pan with the spatula to loosen the granola, and allow to cool, stirring once.

FRUIT AND NUT MILK CHOCOLATE GRANOLA CLUSTERS

Steps:

• Line a mini muffin tin with mini (1 1/4-inch) cupcake/candy liners, or set them on a baking sheet or other rigid surface. Set aside.
• Fill a medium saucepan with about an inch of water and put over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and set a double boiler or metal bowl on top of the pan. Pour the chocolate chips in the bowl and stir constantly just until melted. Remove from heat.
• Pour two cups of granola into the chocolate and stir until coated.
• Using two spoons or a cookie scoop, scoop melted chocolate and granola mixture by the tablespoonful into liners. Sprinkle with granola (I try to include a nut and a piece of fruit on top of each one to help people know what to expect when they bite into one).
• Let sit at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until hard.
• Clusters keep at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

ELEVEN MADISON PARK GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, pistachios, coconut, pumpkinseeds and salt.
• In a small saucepan set over low heat, warm the sugar, syrup and olive oil until the sugar has just dissolved, then remove from heat. Fold liquids into the mixture of oats, making sure to coat the dry ingredients well.
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and spread granola over it. Bake until dry and lightly golden, 35 to 40 minutes, stirring granola a few times along the way.
• Remove granola from oven, and mix into it the dried sour cherries. Allow to cool to room temperature before transferring to a storage container. Makes about 6 cups.
