- measuring spoons

- mixing bowl
- Wooden spoon
- baking sheet
Ingredients
- 2 cup Rolled Oats
- 2 cups Puffed Rice Cereal
- 1/3 cup Honey
- 3 tbsp Canola Oil
- 5 Medjool Dates chopped
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
- Pinch Kosher Salt
- 1 cup Raisins
- 1 cup Pumpkin Seeds
- 1 cup Slivered Almonds
- 1 cup Coconut Chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl combine the oats, puffed rice cereal, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
- In a high powered blender, blitz together the honey, oil, vanilla and chopped dates until a smooth sauce is created.
- Pour the wet ingredients in the blender over the dry ingredients in the bowl and stir to combine.
- Spread out the mixture evenly, in one layer, onto the baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven stirring every 15 minutes or so to keep it from burning.
- After 30 minutes, add the remaining mix-ins and toss to combine. If you add them earlier, they will burn. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 minutes. Do not stir. While resting, the granola will have a chance to stick together and clump up.
- When completely cool, store your granola in an airtight container or in a Zip loc bag.
- Enjoy sprinkled over Greek yogurt or a bowl of cereal.
