There’s something so satisfying about making your own granola. It’s the perfect combination of crunchy, sweet, and wholesome — and it fills your kitchen with the most amazing aroma while baking! This recipe is one of my favorites because it’s incredibly easy to put together, and you can customize it with your favorite nuts and seeds. Every time I make it, I feel like I'm treating myself to a little bit of comfort. Whether sprinkled on top of yogurt, mixed into smoothies, or just eaten by the handful, it’s the kind of snack that never gets old. Plus, it keeps well, so you’ll have a homemade treat on hand for days to come. Enjoy!
Ingredients
17.5oz (500g) old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup silvered sliced almonds
1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds (Pepitas)
1/3 cup chia seeds
1/3 cup whole flaxseeds
1/2 cup raw pistachios and/or pecan pieces
1/3 cup rinsed raisins or craisins
4.2oz (120g) pure Maple syrup
Step by Step
Preheat the oven to 380F/ 190C.
Onto an oven pan lined with parchment paper, spread the oats so they are mostly in one layer.
Spread all the seeds and nuts evenly across the pan on top of the oats. Bake for 10 minutes, take the pan out - mix gently, and place the pan back in the oven for 10-15 more minutes or until lightly golden.
Remove from the oven, add the raisins on top and mix well. Add the syrup ontop and mix until consistent. Pour the mix into a glass container and keep it sealed up to 2 days in room temperature, or refrigerated for 1 week.
