NUT-AND-SEED GRANOLA

We left the oats out of this low-carb, low-sugar granola. Our taste testers were split on the level of toastiness: Some liked the granola golden brown, while others liked a deeper, more robust version. Just follow the recipe's visual cues (and your nose) for your preferred doneness.

Time 1h20m

Yield 7 servings (1/3 cup per serving)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup sliced skin-on almonds
1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
3 tablespoons sunflower seeds
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack at the bottom of the oven, and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  • Whisk the maple syrup and oil together in a large bowl. Add the almonds, pecans, coconut, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flaxseed and salt, and toss to coat.
  • Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove it from the oven, and scrape and toss the mixture around. Continue to bake until golden and still slightly sticky, 10 to 12 minutes more. Or, for a deeper, toasted version, bake until deeply golden (you may start to smell the toasted nuts), 13 to 15 minutes more. Let cool. (The granola can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.)

WHOLE GRAIN GRANOLA

This recipe for a not-too-sweet, olive-oil and honey-enriched granola can be used as a template. Vary the types and amounts of puffed and rolled (also called flaked) grains, coconut and nuts to suit your taste, as long as you use eight cups altogether. And feel free to add chopped dried fruit at the end, stirring it into the granola mix while it's still warm. If you want to add spices, stir a mix of ground cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom into the honey mixture before baking. It's easy to make this recipe your own.

Tips:

  • Toast the nuts and seeds before adding them to the granola: This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Use a combination of sweeteners: This will help to create a more balanced flavor. You can use honey, maple syrup, agave nectar, or coconut sugar.
  • Add spices to taste: This will give your granola a unique flavor. You can use cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or cardamom.
  • Bake the granola at a low temperature: This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Let the granola cool completely before storing it: This will help to keep it crispy.

Conclusion:

Granola is a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a little planning, you can make a granola that is both nutritious and delicious.
