100 grams Sourdough Starter
30 grams Water
30 grams Brown Sugar
30 grams Flour (any kind)
1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt
160 grams Rolled Oats
70 grams Nuts
50 grams Mixed Seeds (like sunflower, flax, sesame, etc)
20 grams Maple Syrup or Honey
20 grams Vegetable Oil
1 handful Dried Fruit/Cacao Nibs/etc.

Steps:

Mix the first four ingredients and ferment for 3-8 hours. (Fermenting isn't necessary but I typically let mine ferment for at least 3 hours.)
Preheat the oven to 300F.
Combine all the dry ingredients except for the mix-ins in a large bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients (honey/maple syrup and oil) into the preferment, then pour the wet ingredients over the dry and mix to combine.
Spread the mixture thinly on a silicone or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for ~45 min, rotating pan halfway through. If the granola is browning quickly, turn the oven down to 275 or 250 halfway through baking. Turn oven off and allow to cool for ~30 minutes, then break the granola into pieces and return to the turned-off oven to cool completely. Add mix-ins once completely cool and store in an airtight container.
