Dana Treat – Treat Yourself
A Winner, Christmas Sweaters, and Granola
Posted December 13, 2010
Clark suggests you serve this with fresh ricotta and berries. Not for me, thank you, but feel free to add this to yours. I used roasted salted pistachios because that is all I had so did not add the salt. I used coconut flakes from Bob’s Red Mill and I love their texture here.
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1½ cup raw pistachios, hulled
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds, hulled
1 cup coconut chips
¾ cup pure maple syrup
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tsp. kosher salt
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
½ tsp. ground cardamom or ginger
¾ cup chopped dried apricots
Preheat oven to 300°F.
In a large bowl, combine the oats, pistachios, pumpkin seeds, coconut chips, maple syrup, olive oil, brown sugr, salt, cinnamon, and cardamom or ginger. Spread the mixture on a large rimmed baking sheet (about 11×7 inches) in an even layer and bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until golden brown and well toasted.
Transfer the granola to a large bowl and add the apricots, tossing to combine. (DT: I just did this on the baking sheet.)
