Ingredients

Ingredients for about 5 cups of homemade granola:

  • Dry Ingredients:
    • 3 cups gluten-free rolled oats
    • 1 cup raw pecans
    • 1 cup raw cashews
    • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
    • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
    • pinch of sea salt
  • Wet Ingredients:
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 1/4 cup coconut oil (or olive oil)
    • 1/3 cup Simple Truth raw honey (or substitute maple syrup, agave or apple honey)

Steps

Step 1

Set oven to 325F.

Step 2

Add raw nuts to a sealable bag and crush them up (using your hands or another object).

Step 3

Add the raw nuts to a bowl, then add the rest of the dry ingredients. Mix together.

Step 4

Then add the wet ingredients to the bowl. Thoroughly mix everything together using a spatula and ensure all the rolled oats are covered in oil and honey.

Step 5

Add parchment paper to a baking sheet, then spread the granola out on the pan. Make sure there are no large clumps, you want it flat.

Step 6

If desired, drizzle a little more honey over the top of the granola, then sprinkle cane sugar on top for crunch.

Step 7

Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Careful not to let the oats or nuts burn.

Step 8

After baking, allow the granola to completely cool, then easily break it into pieces.

Step 9

Store the granola in an airtight container and it will be good for several weeks.
