Homemade Granola

12 ingredients
4 steps

Ingredients

  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 5 cups of rolled oats
  • 2-3 cups of slivered almonds or pecan halves (or a mixture of both)
  • 1 cup of hulled raw sunflower seeds
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup of light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil

Directions

  1. 1
    Make sure oven racks are in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients. Mix well. In a small bowl, whisk all of the wet ingredients together. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir well.
  3. 3
    Spread the mixture evenly between 2-rimmed baking sheets. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until evenly golden brown. Set a timer to go off every 10 minutes while the granola is baking to rotate the baking sheets and stir the granola (I set 2 timers, one for 35-40 minutes and another for 10 minute intervals to help me keep track of the timing!) Whenever the granola is golden, take the baking pans out of the oven and stir the granola well so that the granola doesn't cool in one large, solid sheet. The granola will seem soft when it comes out of the oven, but it crisps as it cools.
  4. 4
    Place the cooled granola into a large Ziploc plastic bag or another airtight container, and store in the fridge until ready to consume!
