Ottolenghi’s Maple Nut Granola
OTTOLENGHI’S MAPLE NUT GRANOLA
A fantastic go-to granola recipe from the London chef and restauranteur Yotam Ottolenghi. This is a crunchy, not too sweet granola with super deep flavor.
Ingredients
2 cups (260g) mix of nuts and seeds (almonds, cashews, walnuts, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds..whatever you like)
3 cups (300g) rolled oats
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbsp water
4 tbsp coconut oil or vegetable oil
1 cup (240ml) maple syrup
Directions
Preheat oven to 275 F. Coarsely chop nuts and seeds and combine with oats in a bowl
Combine all the ingredients for the syrup and add to bowl of nuts and oats. Mix well.
Line a baking sheet with parchment. Spread the granola mixture evenly.
Bake for roughly 40 mins turning it at the halfway point. Bake until a dark, maple syrup color. Don’t worry if it seems soft at this point. It will turn crunchy after leaving it to cool.
