Macadamia Maple Granola

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven at 350 and coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Combine butter and syrup in saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted, but not boiling. Remove from heat.
2. 2
   Combine oats, salt, orange zest and nuts in small bowl. Pour in the maple-butter mixture and stir well, coating the oats evenly. Spread thinly on the baking sheet and pop in the oven for about 12 minutes, stirring once or twice as it bakes. Remove after 12 minutes, stir again, and let it sit and cool.
3. 3
   Store in an airtight container once cooled. The granola keeps well at room temperature.
