THE BEST GRANOLA



The Best Granola image

For our best granola, we wanted a crunchy, clustery version that wasn't too sweet. We created this simple but universally likeable recipe that's flavored with vanilla and a blend of brown sugar and maple syrup. We love its pure flavors and balance of salty and sweet. It is the perfect canvas for personalization, so we've included some ideas for mix-ins at the end of the recipe.

Time 2h

Yield 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick cooking spray
3 cups regular rolled oats (not quick-cooking)
1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup large unsweetened coconut flakes
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine the oats, almonds, coconut chips and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine.
  • Combine the brown sugar, syrup and oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring often, until the sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Pour the sugar mixture over the oats and stir until well combined, then spread the granola mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally (see Cook's Note) until toasted and golden brown, 60 to 70 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

LAURENT TOURONDEL'S FAVORITE GRANOLA



Laurent Tourondel's Favorite Granola image

This recipe came to The Times from the chef Laurent Tourondel. The focus is on texture: rolled oats, corn flakes, steel-cut oats and sliced almonds combine for a hefty crunch, while honey, vanilla, cinnamon and orange zest give it a golden warmth. The granola comes together quickly and will bake in 20 minutes or less. Store in an airtight container for a week, but you'll probably run out before then.

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups unsweetened cornflakes
1 cup steel-cut oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup canola oil
Finely grated zest of 2 oranges
2 vanilla beans, split and scraped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, cornflakes, steel-cut oats, almonds, salt and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
  • In a small saucepan, combine honey, maple syrup, canola oil, orange zest and split vanilla beans and their pulp. Place over medium heat and boil for 1 minute. Discard vanilla beans, and pour hot liquid over dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, mix until well combined.
  • Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, and spread evenly with the granola. Bake until golden brown and evenly toasted, tossing about halfway through, 10 to 20 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven and place on a rack to cool; mixture will be soft and sticky while hot, but will dry and become crisp as it cools.
  • When granola is completely cool and dry, break into bite-size pieces. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE GRANOLA



Grandma's Homemade Granola image

My grandmother and I created this homemade granola recipe one day, and it is currently loved and requested by the rest of my family, including my other grandma who used to be anti-granola! My favorite ways to serve it are in coconut Greek yogurt or just in a bowl with milk. Simple and awesome.
