Here is what I came up with after getting feedback from my family and reviewing several other granola recipes online:
- 300 g (3 1/2 c.)rolled oats, uncooked
- 100 g (1 c.) sliced almonds
- 100 g (1 c.) chopped pecans or walnuts, or mix of both
- 100 g (1 c.) sliced hazelnuts
- 60 ml (1/4 c.) vegetable oil
- 120 ml (1/2 c.) pure maple syrup
- 15 ml (1 Tbsp.) vanilla
- 1/4 tsp salt
Ingredients
- Prepare a large (I use a bakers half sheet) baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper
- Pre-heat the oven to 250F/120C/1/2gas
- Mix the oats and nuts in a bowl large enough to fit all of the ingredients with room to stir-- mix until well combined
- Mix the vegetable oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt in a small bowl and wisk together
- Add the liquid to the dry mix and stir until the dry ingredients are evenly coated in the liquid
- Spread evenly in the baking sheet and press flat
- Bake for 40 minutes, turning the pan halfway through
- Remove from the oven and let the granola cool in the pan
- Store in an airtight container at room tempurate for several weeks (if it lasts that long!). I use a 2.8 l (3 qt) container to store mine
Instructions
Option
Mix a batch of your favorite dried fruit, chopped into edible bits, and use it to flavor the granola to taste. Keeping the fruit seperate helps control the sweetness of the granola.Tools: large mixing bowl, small mixing bowl, large baking sheet
