Cookie Butter Granola

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat your oven to 325 F and line a large lipped baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
2. 2
   In a large bowl, combine the oats, cashews and almonds. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
3. 3
   In another small bowl, whisk together the cookie butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, honey, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cayenne pepper (if using) until smooth. The cayenne pepper gives it a nice kick, but if it's too much for you, just eliminate it.
4. 4
   Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, until all ingredients are evenly dispersed. Pour the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet and even it out into a thin layer. Press down on the granola to compact it.
5. 5
   Bake at 325 F for 25 minutes. Remove pan from oven. Stir the mixture and press down once again. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the granola is golden and solid.
6. 6
   Remove from oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet, then break into chunks and store in an airtight container for up to a month.
7. 7
   Serve with fruit, yogurt, a drizzle of honey or all by itself! Enjoy!
