I’m still searching for a granola recipe that I like. This one turned out pretty well though I got it a bit browner than I meant to.
1 lb extra thick oats
¼ lb white whole wheat flour
2 oz unsweetened shaved coconut
2 oz flaxseeds
12 oz sunflower seeds and whole almonds
2 cups palm sugar (brown sugar is fine)
10 oz unsalted butter
2/3 cup water, 1/3 cup olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom
Preheat your oven at 300F. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Transfer to a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 300F, stirring at 15 minutes intervals, until quite brown and nearly dry. (about 90 minutes in my kitchen) Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before transferring to airtight containers.
