Maple Pecan Granola

Crunchy, nutty, slightly sweetened.
Author: Vicki

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups jumbo oats
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp groundnut oil
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 150C. Cover a large baking sheet with a layer of baking parchment; set aside.
  • Combine the oats, maple syrup, sugar, oil, cinnamon, & salt in a large bowl & stir together – being sure to leave the pecans out.
  • Spread the oat mixture onto the prepared sheet & bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15-20 minutes. At the halfway mark, stir the chopped pecans into the mixture.
  • Remove from the oven & allow to cool completely. Err on the side of caution with granola, as it’s one of those things that continues cooking after it comes out of the oven. I always pull mine out just as it starts to gain that beautiful golden glow. Happy breakfasting!
