Description

My favorite childhood sandwich in granola form!

Ingredients

  • 2-¼ cups Roasted Unsalted Peanuts (shelled)
  • 1 cup Pecans
  • 3 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • ¾ cups Wheat Germ
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1-¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ cups Honey
  • ½ cups Dark Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1-½ teaspoon Real Vanilla Extract
  • ½ cups Extra Light Olive Oil
  • ½ cups Golden Raisins
  • ½ cups Dried Cranberries

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 325ºF and line your sheet pan with a silpat or parchment paper.

In a large bowl combine the nuts, oats, wheat germ, cinnamon, ground ginger and kosher salt. Stir to combine.

In a small sauce pan, stir the honey and dark brown sugar. Heat over medium, stirring often until bubbling. Remove and turn off the heat. Carefully add in the peanut butter and vanilla, stir. Pour the peanut butter mixture over the nuts and stir until mixed thoroughly. Pour in the olive oil and stir until all of the oil is mixed in.

Pour the mixture onto the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Slide it into the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, stirring twice at every 15 minute mark. Remove and mix in the raisins and dried cranberries.

Let cool before storing in an airtight container.

Love this recipe! Making homemade granola can be quite tricky! We like ours more “clumpy” and not all loose, this hit the ticket with a bit of both! A few substitutions due to what I had on hand: half of my peanuts were salted, so I omitted the salt in the ingredient list. I used ground flax seed, vs.the wheat germ, 3/4 c. honey, 1/4 c. br.sugar, coconut oil vs olive oil, extra cranberries. I also baked probably closer to an hour, not stirring it the last 15 to form more of the clump/whole piece granola. GREAT mid-day snack! Thanks :)
