PECAN CRANBERRY GRANOLA INGREDIENTS 2 cups old fashioned or rolled oats
½ cup pecans 1 tsp organic cane sugar
½ tsp cinnamon powder ¼ tsp Himalayan pink sea salt 6 tbsp coconut nectar 4 tbsp vegan butter
½ cup dried cranberries
SERVING SIZE: 2/3 CUP INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Add oats, pecans, coconut sugar, cinnamon powder, and salt to a large mixing bowl and stir.
Add vegan butter and coconut nectar to a small saucepan. Warm over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, whisking frequently until the two are combined. Immediately pour over the dry ingredients and stir to combine until all oats and nuts are thoroughly coated.
Arrange on a large baking sheet and spread into an even layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then remove from oven and turn the pan around so the other end goes into the oven first (so it bakes evenly). To keep this granola chunky, don’t stir during baking, or right after. Let cool completely before enjoying.
Add dried fruit to the pan while the granola is cooling and then break into clumps. Store in a mason jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
