Ingredients

  • 3 cups Rolled oats
  • 1 cup Sliced almonds
  • 1 cup Crystallized ginger, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Maple syrup
  • 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, sliced almonds, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to distribute the spices evenly.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients over the dry mixture, stirring thoroughly until all the oats and almonds are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the granola mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Press it gently with the back of a spatula to encourage clusters.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even toasting. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.

Step 7

Remove the granola from the oven once it is golden and fragrant. Let it cool completely on the baking sheet, during which it will crisp up.

Step 8

Once cooled, stir in the chopped crystallized ginger.

Step 9

Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Serve with yogurt, milk, or enjoy as a snack on its own!
