This yummy homemade granola recipe is the perfect yogurt topper, smoothie filler, or grab and go snack.
Almond Spice Granola
this recipe makes about 5 cups granola
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 1/2 cups sliced almonds, raw
1/2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
3 Tbsp melted virgin coconut oil
1 Tbsp flax seeds
1/3 cup dried mulberries
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup sugar (brown sugar is my preferred)
1 orange, squeezed for juice
1 orange, peeled/diced
1/4 tsp citrus zest (from orange peel)
3/4 tsp almond extract
Cook:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
3. Line a baking sheet with wax paper (can use foil as a substitute) and spread the granola over top in a thin layer.*
4. Bake at 300 degrees for about 35 minutes. Tossing the granola around every ten minutes. Let rest a few minutes to cool and crisp up before jarring.
* Note that if you use foil, be careful not to burn the bottom side of granola, or that it does not stick to heavily to the foil
