Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp dried ginger
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup almond butter (natural, so it’s runny – favorite brands are Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods)
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together oats, pecans, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
- In a smaller bowl, whisk together maple syrup, almond butter, and vanilla.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until completely combined.
- Pour onto baking sheet in a flat sheet. The granola should take up 3/4 of the sheet and should be all touching and pressed down flat.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
- Let cool completely before breaking. The best way to ensure clusters is to not crumble until it is totally cool.
- Toss with remaining cinnamon and coconut sugar.
- Store in airtight container.
