Maple-Pecan-Olive Oil Granola image

This is a forgiving granola recipe that readily customizes to fit your taste, budget, or pantry. Maintain the ratio of oats to nuts and seeds (and dried fruits, if you're a dried-fruit person), and have at it. Store in an airtight container.

Time 30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 cups rolled oats
2 cups pecan halves, broken into coarse pieces
1 cup slivered almonds
½ cup raw pumpkin seeds
½ cup raw unsalted sunflower seeds
½ cup maple syrup
½ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 ½ cups golden raisins

Steps:

  • Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Stir oats, pecans, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds together in a large bowl. Add maple syrup, olive oil, vanilla extract, and salt; toss well to coat. Spread evenly between the 2 baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, rotating the sheets top to bottom and front to back halfway through.
  • Remove from the oven and immediately divide golden raisins between the two sheets, stirring them in well so the hot granola plumps the fruit. Cool thoroughly.
