Recipe by Carina Duclos
Prep Time
5 minutes
Cook Time
45 minutes
Yield
4 cups
Ingredients
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
¾ cup sliced or slivered almonds
½ cup whole almonds
½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
½ cup brown sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter, melted
¾ cup (120 ml) pure maple syrup (preferably Grade A Dark Amber)
1 cup dried fruits (cranberries, cherries, apricots, dates, figs, and/or raisins) (optional) (I used raisins).
Instructions
1. Mix all dry ingredients first. Add the maple syrup and oil. Mix well. Spread onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 30 - 45 minutes at 325 F or until golden brown, stirring occasionally so the mixture browns evenly. It will get crisper as it cools down.
2. Break into big chunks. Store in air-tight containers. It will last several weeks.
Eat it with yogurt also! I just had a bowl of yogurt with strawberries and granola.
