Equipment
Ingredients
- 5 cups certified gluten-free oats
- ¾ cup flax seeds
- 2 cups coarsely chopped almonds cashews or other nuts
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds pepitas
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ½ cups dried cranberries
- 1 cup golden raisins
- ¾ cup crunchy peanut butter
- ¾ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup agave nectar
- ¼ cup honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Mix together the oats, flax seeds, almonds, and pumpkin seeds in a large roasting pan (it’s much easier to stir the ingredients thoroughly in a roasting pan than on a baking sheet). Sprinkle the cinnamon, ginger, and salt over the top and then stir well.
- Add dried cranberries and raisins – you may want to increase the amount, they definitely add a lot of nice flavor and texture.
- Combine peanut butter, maple syrup, agave and honey in a two-cup Pyrex measuring cup and microwave for 30-40 seconds – just to soften the peanut butter. Stir together and then drizzle evenly over the surface of the oats mixture. Mix all ingredients together thoroughly.
- Bake at 350° for about 40 minutes, stirring the mixture well every 10 minutes. Let the granola cool completely before eating; package in airtight containers or freeze smaller portions for future snacks.
- Makes 8-10 cups.
Notes
