Ingredients

  • 4 cups gluten-free oats
  • 1 cup raw pecans chopped
  • ½ cup raw almonds chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon cardamom
  • dash of cloves
  • couple dashes of ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • ½ cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl combine oats, pecans, almonds, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, black pepper, and coconut sugar. Stir to combine.
  • In a small bowl add olive oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined. Pour liquid over dry ingredients and stir with a large spoon until the oat mixture is completely coated.
  • Transfer mixture to prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through bake time and flattening back into an even layer. You may find halfway through that you want to cover pan lightly with a sheet of foil in case your pecans look as though they are browning quickly.
  • Remove from oven and allow granola to cool completely before placing in an airtight container. This will ensure there are clumps!
