Ingredients
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup uncooked O Organics organic quinoa
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1 cup raw pecans
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil (or butter)
  • ¼ cup O Organics 100% pure maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon O Organics ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup O Organics organic seedless raisins
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, toss oats, quinoa, almonds, pecans, brown sugar and salt until combined.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt coconut oil (or butter) over medium heat. Add maple syrup and heat for two to three minutes, or until the ingredients are blended, stirring as needed.
  3. Mix the maple syrup mixture in with 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.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from oven and stir granola with a spatula or wooden spoon. Place in oven and bake about 10 minutes more, or until granola is evenly cooked and a light golden brown.
  5. Cool completely and store in a sealed bag or container at room temperature for 2 weeks or freeze up to a month.
