INGREDIENTS
2 cups oats (quick-cooking or old-fashioned should be fine)
1 cup almonds
1 cup cashews
1/2 cup flax seeds
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons maple syrup
3-4 tablespoons vegetable oil (I used 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and 2 tablespoons flax oil)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 tablespoons honey
extra two tablespoons oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
DIRECTIONS
- First, preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Prepare a 9×13 pan by lining it with foil and spraying lightly with oil. Then, in one bowl, combine the oats, nuts, flax seeds, and brown sugar. In another bowl, combine the 3-4 tablespoons of oil, maple syrup, and salt. Then mix all of them together and pour onto the 9 x 13 pan. Put that in the oven for 45 minutes, making sure to take it out every 15 minutes and stir everything around so that everything gets roasted evenly.
- While the granola mixture is baking, get another bowl and mix one egg, two tablespoons of honey, two tablespoons oil (again, I used half vegetable oil and half flax oil), and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. After the 45 minutes of baking, take the granola mixture out and transfer it into a bowl. Meanwhile, increase oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
- Mix in the raisins and cranberries with the granola. Then, pour in the egg mixture. Mix again, then add 1/2 cup all-purpose flour mixed with the cinnamon (I suspect you can use whole wheat flour instead, but I didn’t, so don’t quote me on that). Once everything is nice and mixed properly, pour it back into the pan and spread it out evenly.
- Pop it back into the oven for about 20 minutes or until the edges are golden or until you can’t stand the smell of the roasting nuts.
