Granola
Ingredients
-
2 1/3 cups (200 g.) old-fashioned oats
-
2/3 cup (40 g.) unsweetened coconut flakes
-
1/3 cup (40 g.) chopped raw pecans
-
1/3 cup (40 g.) chopped walnuts
-
1/4 cup (55 g.) packed light brown sugar
-
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
-
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
-
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
-
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
-
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
-
1/4 cup (30 g.) dried apricots
-
1/4 cup (40 g.) packed raisins

-
Preheat oven to 300°. Line an 18" x 13" sheet tray with parchment. In a large bowl, toss oats, coconuts, pecans, walnuts, brown sugar, oil, syrup, salt, vanilla, and cinnamon. Pour mixture onto prepared tray and pack to an 11" x 9" rectangle.
-
Bake granola 15 minutes, then remove from oven and stir to break up mixture. Compact back to a rectangle with a spatula and continue to bake until lightly golden brown, about 30 minutes more. Give it another toss if color is still slightly under golden brown and continue to bake in 3- to 5-minute increments; the edges will start to darker more quickly. Let cool 10 minutes.

Break up into small clusters. Gently fold in apricots and raisins, then let cool completely.
