Treat your loved ones to a delicious, super-crunchy, and moderately sweet granola for breakfast, with pleasant hints of vanilla and caramel from the combination of brown sugar and maple syrup. Coarse salt is added before baking to balance the sweetness. If you prefer a chunkier granola, just stir it a couple of times during baking. For a fluffier version, stir more frequently to break up any clumping. You can use this recipe as a base and add any toppings you like, such as dried fruit, chocolate chips, candied fruit, or nuts.

Ingredients for the recipe:
- 3 cups plain oatmeal (not quick-cooking)
- 1 cup almond needles

Recipes with similar ingredients: rolled oats, coconut flakes, almond, maple syrup
Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (150°C) and lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Combine oats, almonds, coconut and salt in a large bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, syrup, and vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour the sugar mixture over the oats and toss to coat well, then spread the granola evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally (see note), until golden brown, 60-70 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a wire rack to cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Note
If you prefer a lumpier granola, stir it less frequently. Stirring just twice during baking and then letting it cool will result in a lot of lumps. Once the granola has cooled completely, you can add dried fruit, chocolate chips, cacao nibs, or any other flavoring you like.
