Yield Yields 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup raw wheat germ
1/2 cup flax seed
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1 cup blanched almonds, chopped
1 scant tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup + 2 tbsp (3 oz) canola oil
3 tbsp honey
3 tbsp molasses
1/4 cup dried fruit

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 300°F.
  • Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. add the canola oil, honey, and molasses (if you measure the oil in your measuring cup first, the honey and molasses will pour more easily). Stir until well combined and all the dry ingredients are coated.
  • Spread the granola on a baking sheet with a spatula-if you like your granola with clusters, make sure it's packed together tightly.
  • Bake for 10 minutes before stirring. If you want to preserve clusters, just be sure you don't stir it too thoroughly.
  • Continue baking and stirring every 10 minutes until the granola is golden brown-about 30-35 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and add dried fruit. Allow the granola to cool completely (it will get crunchy as it cools). Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

GRANOLA



Granola image

Chock-full of grains, nuts, seeds, fruits, and natural sweeteners, granola is easy to prepare, and, when it's homemade, it's much lower in sugar and fat than store-bought varieties. This basic recipe can be easily adapted to create many different versions, including the three variations that follow. You can omit the nuts or the dried fruit, as desired. For a vegan option, simply omit the egg whites; the granola won't be as crunchy but will still be delicious. Freeze granola in an airtight container for up to three months (it thaws quickly), or store at room temperature for up to two weeks.

Yield Makes 12 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)
1 1/4 cups chopped nuts, such as raw almonds, pistachios, walnuts, pecans, or a combination (optional)
1/4 cup raw hulled pumpkin seeds (pepitas) or sunflower seeds
1/3 cup ground flaxseed or toasted wheat germ, or a combination
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 large egg whites
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup sweetener, such as honey, agave, or unsulfured molasses
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup coarsely chopped dried fruit, such as sour cherries, cranberries, currants, raisins, apricots, figs, or pineapple

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine oats, nuts (if using), pumpkin seeds, flaxseed, and cinnamon. In another bowl, whisk together egg whites and salt until frothy. Add honey and oil, and whisk to combine. Stir into oat mixture until combined.
  • Spread mixture in even layers on two rimmed baking sheets. Bake 20 minutes; remove from oven, and use a spatula to gently flip the granola and move it from outer edges to center (to brown evenly). Return to oven, and continue to cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Cool completely on sheets, then transfer to a bowl; stir in dried fruit.
  • Pistachios, Sunflower Seeds, Sour Cherries, and Toasted Coconut
  • Use 1 1/4 cups chopped pistachios and 1/4 cup sunflower seeds in the base. After granola has been baked, stir in 1 cup dried sour cherries and 1/2 cup toasted unsweetened coconut.
  • Almonds, Pumpkin Seeds, Currants, and Puffed Brown Rice
  • Use 1 1/4 cups sliced almonds and 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds in the base. After granola has been baked, stir in 1 cup dried currants and 1/2 cup puffed brown rice cereal.
  • Macadamia Nuts with Crystallized Ginger and Pineapple
  • Use 1 1/4 cups chopped macadamia nuts, and molasses as the sweetener in the base. Add 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger to the oat mixture. After granola has been baked, stir in 3/4 cup chopped dried pineapple, 1/4 cup chopped crystallized ginger, and 1/2 cup toasted unsweetened coconut.

Categories     Fruit     Breakfast     Bake     Roast     Healthy     Granola

Yield makes about 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup pecans
1/2 cup natural almonds
4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup sesame seeds (optional)
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/3 cup pure maple syrup, cane syrup, or honey, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
3/4 cup chopped pitted dates
1/2 cup dried blueberries, raisins, and/or cranberries

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large shallow baking sheet with foil. Spread the pecans and almonds on the sheet and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly toasted. Transfer the nuts to a board, let cool, and chop the nuts. Set aside.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F. Pour the oats and sesame seeds, if using, in a mound on the same baking sheet. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave; stir in the maple syrup and salt, and drizzle on top of the oats. Stir well with a rubber spatula and then spread out the oats in an even layer. Bake the oats for 30 minutes, stirring once with the spatula halfway through, until the oats are lightly colored. Let cool; the mixture will crisp as it cools.
  • Add the dates, dried fruit, and reserved nuts to the oats and toss. Store the granola in covered glass jars at room temperature for up to 1 month.
