Gingerbread Granola

Gingerbread Granola

Prep: 5 Min Bake: 30 min.

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds) or almonds
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup dark robust pure Vermont maple syrup (if you don't have dark, use what you have on hand!)

 

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the oats, pepitas or almonds, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and salt together.

  3. In a small saucepan, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, stir in the maple syrup and remove from heat.

  4. Pour the coconut-maple mix over the oats and stir to combine.

  5. Transfer the granola to the baking sheet and spread it into an even layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until aromatic.

  6. Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool. Once cooled, break into bits and store in an air tight container. Enjoy over yogurt with fresh or roasted fruit!
