Maple Pecan Granola
Report
Granola is the best make-ahead breakfast. It's full of nuts and whole grains and healthy stuff, with a hint of maple and cinnamon. Pair it with some plain yogurt, milk, or a smoothie. It's so easy to make!

Ingredients
Dry:
- 8 cups rolled oats
- 1 & 1/2 cups wheat germ
- 1 & 1/2 cups oat bran
- 1 cup salted sunflower seeds
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup salted pepitas pumkin seeds
- 1 cup pecans roughly chopped
Wet:
- 1 cup olive oil
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
- 1/4 teaspoon cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla or vanilla bean paste
- 1 & 1/2 cups dried cherries
- 1 & 1/2 cups dried cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the largest bowl you have, combine the oats, wheat germ, oat bran, sunflower seeds, almonds, pepitas, and pecans.
- In a saucepan, combine oil, maple syrup, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Wait about a minute and then stir in the vanilla (If you do it right away some of it will burn off).
- Slowly pour some of the liquid over the oat mixture and stir. Add the rest in a few increments until it is all incorporated.
- Line 2 large rimmed baking sheets with foil or parchment paper. Divide the granola between the pans and spread evenly.
- Bake at 350 for about 12 minutes, then stir the pans and bake for another 10-12 minutes, until it's just starting to brown. (If you are baking both pans at once, rotate the top and bottom pans when you stir.)
- Let the granola cool. Sprinkle the cherries and cranberries over the granola and mix in.
- Store in an airtight container.
