Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil or coconut oil divided
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup pecan halves or pieces
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven and prep the pan. Preheat your oven to 350F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. 
  • Mix the granola. In a medium bowl, mix together the oats, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, maple syrup, and cinnamon until well combined. Spread the mixture out over ¾ of the sheet pan. 
  • Prep the pecans. Add the pecan pieces, remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and kosher salt to the same bowl and toss to coat. Add the pecans to the remaining ¼ of the sheet pan. 
  • Bake. Bake for 15 minutes, then stir the pecans and oats together. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the granola is golden brown. Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature for at least 30 minutes. 
  • Serve. Break the granola into your desired size and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days.
