Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups almonds raw coarsely chopped
  • 0.3 cup canola oil 
  • tablespoons ground cinnamon 
  • 1.3 cups maple syrup dark pure
  • 18 ounces old-fashioned rolled oats [use gf oats instant for gluten-free] (not )
  • cup earthbound farm raisins organic
  • ounces sunflower seeds raw

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • wire rack
  • spatula

Directions

  1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  2. Place the oats, sunflower seeds, almonds, and cinnamon in a large bowl and stir to combine.
  3. Add the maple syrup and oil, and stir until all the dry ingredients are moistened.
  4. Spread the granola on a 17 x 12 x 1-inch rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Bake until the granola begins to brown, about 25 minutes. Stir the granola with a flat spatula and continue to cook until it’s light golden brown, dry, and fragrant, about 15 to 20 minutes more. Stir the granola at least once more, and watch it carefully during the final minutes because it can burn quickly.
  6. Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack.

  8. Transfer the granola to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 1 month, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
