Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan
  • 1 Large Bowl
  • 1 Sauce pan

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1 cup ground flaxseed
  • 1 cup dried wild blueberries
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions
 

  • Set oven to 300F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  • In a large bowl, combine oats, nuts, seeds, dried wild blueberries, salt and cinnamon.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, oil and water. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture starts to bubble (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.
  • Pour the syrup over the oat mixture and stir until everything is well coated.
  • Spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet. Bake for 40-45 minutes, stirring halfway through for even baking. If you prefer chunkier granola, press the mixture down before baking and avoid stirring.
  • Let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet – it will crisp up as it cools.
  • Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
